LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Clippers moved closer to finalizing their roster for training camp Tuesday by signing point guard Reggie Jackson to a one-year contract and waiving backup center Joakim Noah, according to multiple people with knowledge of the moves who were not authorized to speak publicly on the matter.
Noah, 35, is expected to retire after 13 NBA seasons, the first nine with the Chicago Bulls, who drafted him with the No. 9 pick in 2007.
Noah was the NBA’s Defensive Player of the Year and the first-team All-NBA center in 2013-14, and he finished fourth in MVP voting that season.
