Weems joined the Guangdong team in the summer of 2018, when he just ended his contract with the Zhejiang men's basketball team, but was not enforced the right of priority renewal, coinciding with the injury of Guangdong's then foreign aid Morris, Zhu Fangyu and Du Feng, who were eager to find new foreign aid, resolutely decided to sign Weems as a fire-fighting foreign aid, opening the era of small ball belonging to the CBA League.

At present, the CBA regular season is in the first stage, and Weems cannot play now due to the failure to return to the team in time in the United States before, and needs to wait until the second stage to play. Fortunately, the Guangdong team used the all-Chinese class to achieve good results, and the key battles in Zhejiang were also won, and had achieved 5 consecutive wins, and when Weems joined, the overall paper strength of the Guangdong team would be stronger.

Guangdong general manager Zhu Fangyu has previously made it clear that the team will not find new foreign aid, mainly seeking to renew Weems and Marshon Brooks, after finalizing Weems to renew the contract, the rest is to sign Ma Shang. But it is worth noting that Ma Shang suffered a rupture in the Achilles tendon last season, and is still in the recovery stage, the fastest also needs to wait until the end of January 2022 to return, it may miss most of the regular season, once Zhu Fangyu determines to renew Ma Shang, then the Guangdong team basically has to play the whole regular season in the whole Chinese class and the single foreign aid model.
