The Lakers continue adding in free agency with three more signings as the NBA Free Agency window opens on Thursday. Los Angeles has added Lonnie Walker, Troy Brown and Damian Jones. Walker was signed for one year, on a $6.5 million deal. Brown was signed on a one-year contract for the league minimum. Jones was given two years, but for a yet-unknown amount.
ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported the news via Twitter on Thursday.
Jones was the final pick of the first round of the 2016 NBA Draft. He bounced around from the Warriors, to the Hawks, to the Clippers, to the Lakers, to the Kings. He is now a Laker yet again after playing there during the 2021 season.
Brown, an undrafted player, is now one of 13 Klutch Sports clients that have been with Los Angeles since the 2017 season began. Walker gained favor with the Lakers by playing for the San Antonio Spurs and five-time NBA Finals-winning coach Gregg Popovich. He was also a former first round pick.
Stay tuned for more breaking NBA content, including preseason moves, contract updates and more news from every team.
