Clippers, free agent Raymond Felton agree to a deal
The Clippers agreed to a deal with free-agent point guard Raymond Felton for the veteran’s minimum Thursday, said an NBA official who was not authorized to speak publicly on the matter.
The one-year deal will be for $1.5 million.
Felton, who spent the last two seasons with Dallas, averaged 9.5 points and 3.6 assists last season with the Mavericks. He shot 40.6% from the field, 28.2% from three-point range.
Over his 11-year career, Felton averaged 12.4 point and 6.0 assists. He’s a career 41.2% shooter, 32.7% on three-pointers.
Felton gives the Clippers a solid backup at point guard behind Chris Paul.
