Forward Matt Barnes has played most of his 11-year NBA career signing one-year deals for around the veteran minimum. On Friday he finally received some financial stability when he agreed to terms with the Los Angeles Clippers. Read more after the jump.
According to ESPNLosAngeles.com, Barnes will sign a three-year contract worth around $11 million on Wednesday.
“I’ve been one of those guys the last three or four years that’s always been a great bargain,” Barnes had said a while back. “I’ve played for the mid-level and have played well but have yet to see a payday. Not to say that I’m asking for the world, but I’m definitely looking for a salary increase.”
Barnes will once again provide strong defense off the bench for the Clippers.
