Bogut joins Lakers on 1-year deal, says agent

Australian star Andrew Bogut has inked a one-year deal with the Los Angeles Lakers, the player’s agent said on Tuesday.

Bogut, 32, has been a free agent since parting with the Cleveland Cavaliers in March, when he sustained a broken leg on his debut for the club. The deal, confirmed by agent David Bauman on Twitter, is reportedly worth US$2.3 million for the towering center. Bogut endured a nomadic 2016-2017 season, starting out with the Dallas Mavericks where he averaged 3 points and 8.4 rebounds in 26 games. He was later traded to the Philadelphia 76ers and then reached a buyout agreement in February which freed him to join the Cavaliers. However, his Cleveland career lasted just 58 seconds after a collision with Miami’s Okaro White left him with a fractured tibia.
