Free agent guard Kevon Harris has agreed to sign a training camp contract with the Clippers, agent Daniel Hazan tells Shams Charania of The Athletic (Twitter link).
According to Charania, Harris will get the opportunity to compete for a regular season roster spot in Los Angeles. However, that could be an uphill battle unless the Clippers trade or waive one of the players projected to be on their 15-man roster. The club is currently carrying 15 players on fully guaranteed contracts, plus Kai Jones on an Exhibit 10 deal.
Harris, 27, appeared in 34 games for the Magic in 2022/23 while on a two-way contract with the team. That deal covered the ’23/24 season as well, though he saw action in just two NBA contests this past year after missing the first half of the season due to a knee issue.
In 27 regular season outings for the Osceola Magic in the G League in ’23/24, Harris averaged 16.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 2.4 assists in 28.8 minutes per contest, posting a shooting line of .492/.381/.746. The 6’5″ shooting guard was selected to play in the NBAGL’s Up Next game at All-Star weekend.
The Clippers currently have 18 players officially signed to their offseason roster and have also reportedly reached agreements on training camp deals with Elijah Harkless, RayJ Dennis, and now Harris.
