Clippers sign Jalen Pickett to two-way deal

The LA Clippers have signed guard Jalen Pickett to a two-way contract. This signing comes as the Clippers continue to reshape their roster following significant trades, including sending James Harden and Ivica Zubac away. Pickett, a second-round pick in the 2023 NBA Draft, previously played with the Denver Nuggets, where he made 50 appearances last season. He averaged 5.2 points and 2.3 assists, gaining more playing time amid injuries within the Nuggets' lineup. With this contract, Pickett will split his time between the Clippers and their G-League affiliate, the San Diego Clippers, providing depth for the team if needed. He is set to turn 27 in October, aligning his timeline with several younger players on the roster.
