The Los Angeles Clippers today signed free agent guard Jason Williams, according to Vice President of Basketball Operations Elgin Baylor. Per team policy, terms of the deal were not announced. A veteran of 10 NBA seasons, Williams joins the Clippers after playing the last three years for Miami, where he helped the Heat to the 2006 NBA Championship. Williams, 32, has played in 679 career regular season games and averaged 11.4 points, 6.3 assists and 2.4 rebounds for a total of three teams. The six-foot-one, 180 pound point guard has also started and played in 53 career playoff contests, averaging 9.8 points, 3.7 assists, 2.2 rebounds and 0.9 steals. “Jason is an experienced and proven player,” Baylor said. “He is a terrific ball handler with great passing ability and court vision.”

The guy has clearly gone downhill, but for a backup PG, you could do worse.

They also got Steve "I extended the Rockets' winning streak!" Novak

Quote:

The Houston Rockets are set to deal sharp shooter Steve Novak to the Los Angeles Clippers for draft considerations, the Houston Chronicle is reporting.

The deal is expected to be completed on Wednesday.

The Clippers have put together a pretty solid lineup this year, I'd say

Good for him. He gets to play for an equally bad team, that has ten (including him) of its fourteen players being new, against even tougher competition, where he will play less minutes as a back-up to an unhappy star. My sincerest congratulations, Mr. Williams
