Jayson Tatum Joins Biggest Active Contracts In NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL
Free agent forward Nic Batum has agreed on a two-year, $9.6 million deal to join the Los Angeles Clippers, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Batum considered retirement but decided to return for his 17th NBA season after a successful year with the 76ers.
Batum, 35, is a good passer and ball handler for his size and spaces the court with excellent 3-point shooting -- particularly from the corners. Though he's not the athlete he was in his youth, Batum's length at 6-foot-8 keeps him a positive on the defensive end.
After spending three seasons with the Clippers, Batum was sent to Philadelphia early last season as part of the James Harden trade. He became a staple in the 76ers' rotation right away, averaging nearly 26 minutes while starting 38 games.
Batum is set to play for France in the Paris Games later this summer, his fourth Olympics representing his native country.
