Bradley spent the training camp with the Golden State Warriors but ended up being waived as the team opted to keep one roster spot open ahead of the 2021-22 NBA season. The move reportedly didn’t sit well with the Warriors’ key players, notably Stephen Curry and Draymond Green, who advocated for his stay.

Golden State’s loss might be the Lakers’ gain as the LA team didn’t wait too long to jump on the opportunity and pick up Bradley. While he isn’t expected to play a prominent role, he might be a valuable veteran contributor from the bench until the team gets healthy again.

Bradley’s contract is initially non-guaranteed, but it will convert to guaranteed if he remains on the roster past January 7th.

Avery Bradley had his first stint with the Lakers during the 2019-20 NBA season. He played 49 games (44 as a starter) during the regular part of the campaign and averaged 8.6 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 1.3 assists per game. Bradley opted to sit out the postseason due to coronavirus pandemic and wasn’t part of the Lakers’ NBA title-winning run, although he did get a championship ring.

The Lakers agreed to terms with free agent shooting guard Avery Bradley on a 2-year, $9.7 million deal.

Bradley, a nine-year NBA veteran, joins the Lakers as one of a bevy of backcourt and perimeter options. He is expected to serve as a veteran boost for a young roster of guards with little experience in the league.

The 28-year-old was selected in the first round of the 2010 NBA Draft by the Boston Celtics and played sparingly in his first season. However, beginning in 2011, Bradley became a key piece of a Celtics roster that was a consistent playoff presence during his time with the team.

He was twice named a defensive All-NBA selection while with Boston, and consistently averaged around 15 points per game as a starter.

Boston spent the past two seasons as a journeyman, spending time with the Clippers, Pistons, and Grizzlies. While his scoring numbers went down, he is still regarded as a three-point option with some of the best defensive guard play in the league.

While he won’t be the spalshiest addition made by LA this offseason, his signing provides the Lakers with a valuable piece that they hope will leas them back to the playoffs.
