Reggie Jackson received a buyout from the Detroit Pistons and plans to sign with the Clippers, according to a report.
ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported on Tuesday that Jackson and the Pistons agreed to a contract buyout. Once he clears waivers, the guard is expected to join the Clippers.
The Clippers have been looking to improve their roster in hopes of building a championship team. They acquired Marcus Morris in a trade with the Knicks before the deadline and now would be adding Jackson.
Their updated depth chart including Jackson would look like this:
