The Clippers brought in another big man, signing NBA veteran big man Chuck Hayes Monday.
The one-year minimum deal is not fully guaranteed, and Hayes will have to earn his spot on the Clippers’ roster in the preseason.
At 6-foot-6 and 240-pounds, Hayes is undersized by NBA standards, but the forward/center is one of the strongest players in the NBA. In 10 NBA seasons with Houston, Sacramento and Toronto, Hayes’ appeared in 642 games with 244 starts.
He has career averages on 3.7 points and 5.0 rebounds.
Hayes will have a chance to add depth to the Clipper frontcourt which already features All-NBA bigs Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan.
