He's played 588 games in the NBA, no games in China and has earned every one of the millions of dollars he's been paid.
Maybe you confused him with his brother Miles, an entirely different human being, with an entirely different career. But this is a Duke board and it shouldn't be that hard to tell them apart on a Duke board.
Back to your regular programming.
It should bother you -- Mason has done well in the NBA. As to Miles, who accomplished less on the court, he struck it rich -- he made as much money in the NBA as Mason -- $55 M over his seven years in the league -- according to www.basketball-reference.com
