Zeng will likely be headed to the G League to play for the Long Island Nets. He was signed to an Exhibit 10 deal and is now eligible for a bonus worth up to $85,300 if he spends at least 60 days with Brooklyn’s affiliate team.
The 22-year-old has spent the past three seasons playing for the Beijing Ducks of the Chinese Basketball Association. In 42 appearances with the Ducks in 2024/25, Zeng averaged 14.7 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.6 blocks per game while shooting 53% from the field and 41% from three-point range.
Zeng, a 6’10” forward, played in one preseason game with the Nets.
Brooklyn now has a pair of openings on its offseason roster.
