Athletistic / Basketball. Former CSKA point guard Alexey Shved has signed a contract with Chinese team Shanxi Lungs. This was reported by the agent of the 34-year-old Russian, Obrad Fimich.

“Now we can officially say that Alexey has become a Shanxi Lungs player. In the coming days he will receive a work visa and fly to China to join his new team.

I can say that we had two specific offers from Euroleague clubs, but the option with China was more interesting for us. After the NBA and the Euroleague, Alexey discovered the CBA Championship, where many big stars play. The Swede really wants to show his best game and help Shanxi Lungs solve the most important problems,” Fimich is quoted in Sport-Express.

Alexey Shved has been playing for CSKA since 2021. Last season in the VTB United League, he averaged 16.1 points and 7.6 assists in 26 minutes on the court. The army team finished the season in 3rd place, losing to Lokomotiv-Kuban in the semifinals.
