After agreeing to a $6.5 million buyout with the Houston Rockets on Tuesday, Wall joins the Clippers on a two-year, $13.2 million deal.
He stayed with Washington for more than 10 seasons, earning five All-Star game nods and spots on one All-NBA Third Team, one All-Defensive Second Team and All-Rookie First Team. He also stole the show at the 2014 Slam Dunk Contest.
Wall, now 31, departed from Washington to join the Houston Rockets via trade in the midst of the 2020 season, where he has only managed to play in 40 games since for a variety of reasons. He was forced to sit out the entire 2021-22 season after he came to an agreement with Houston management that he would not play as the team underwent a rebuild. Over the course of his career, Wall has averaged 19.1 points, 9.1 rebounds, 4.3 rebounds and 1.7 steals in an average of 35.6 minutes played per game.
His star status brings a true"Big Three" feeling to the squad that currently features seven-time All-Star Paul George and five-time All-Star and two-time NBA Champion Kawhi Leonard. Thanks for reading CBS NEWS.Please enter valid email address to continue
