The Clippers have declined to pick up Brice Johnson‘s 2018/19 team option, according to Brad Turner of the Los Angeles Times (Twitter link). Johnson was set to make $1.5MM next season.
Los Angeles selected Johnson with the No. 25 overall pick in the 2016 draft, but the team hasn’t gotten much return on its investment. The North Carolina product has appeared in just five games for the Clippers since coming into the league.
He will be a stud when he gets playing time. He plays the same position as Blake and deserves a chance.
