The Clippers got the backup center they have yearned for when Brook Lopez agreed to a two-year, $18-million deal, according to people not authorized to speak publicly on the matter. Lopez, who spent the last seven seasons with Milwaukee, averaged 13 points, 5.0 rebounds and shot 37.3% from three-point range.

Brook Lopez, defensive anchor of the 2021 Bucks championship team, is leaving for the Los Angeles Clippers in free agency.
