Two weeks before the B. League's inaugural season tips off, the most popular player in bj-league history remains without a team.

Nine-time All-Star guard Cohey Aoki has not finalized a contract with a B. League squad for the upcoming season.

Aoki made his mark as a team-first performer with a knack for hitting clutch shots throughout the bj-league's 11-season history. He was a beloved player during stints with the Tokyo Apache, Osaka Evessa, Tokyo Cinq Reves and Rizing Fukuoka.
