LOS ANGELES -- The Clippers signed Brevin Knight on Monday,
a month after the veteran free agent guard was waived by the
Charlotte Bobcats.
Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Knight averaged 9.1 points, 6.6 assists and 2.7 rebounds for the
Bobcats last season, but was limited to 45 games. He had a buyout
clause in his contract worth $1.5 million. He was scheduled to make
just over $4 million next season.
"Brevin is one of the better defensive point guards in the
league," Clippers general manager Elgin Baylor said. "He's also a
gifted floor leader with a great assist-to-turnover ratio. We like
that he is good at running the offense and that he always looks to
get his teammates involved."
Knight has also played for Cleveland, Atlanta, Memphis, Phoenix,
Washington and Milwaukee in his 10-year NBA career.
