ESPN's resident Shams Charania, renowned American journalist Shams Charania, exclusively reported on Tuesday that Milwaukee Bucks center Brook Lopez has reached a contract agreement with the Los Angeles Clippers, and the two sides will sign a two-year contract which will run until 2027.
According to Charania's report, Lopez's contract with the Los Angeles Clippers is worth $18 million.
In order to keep the "Greek Freak" Giannis Antetokounmpo as the core asset of the team, the Bucks agreed to let Lopez enter the free agency market.
At the same time, due to the saving of All-Star point guard Damian Lillard, all this has intensified Lopez's willingness to leave the team.
In addition, according to the news brought by Charania's colleague Dave Mcmenamin, the Los Angeles Lakers were also interested in signing Lopez.
He said that the Los Angeles Lakers were willing to sign Lopez to a two-year contract worth $16 million, but some players and management staff thought that the 37-year-old player was too old and might hinder the team's flexibility, hence they finally decided to give up signing Lopez and look for young free agents instead.
In any case, Lopez's arrival will definitely strengthen the Clippers, who are slightly weak in the interior offense.
On the other hand, The Athletic's Buck team correspondent Eric Nehm, said that after sending Lillard and Lopez away, the team is expected to invest funds to tie center Myles Turner down to a long-term four-year, $107 million contract.
