The Clippers have reached agreements with Moses Brown, Xavier Moon and Jay Scrubb, and all three will be on the roster for training camp, tweets Mirjam Swanson of The Orange County Register. The Clippers confirmed the signings via a tweet.
The reports on the signings give the impression that Brown may have to compete for a roster spot (the Clips have one regular-roster spot open now and one two-way spot open, it seems) in training camp. However, the Clips only have one legit center on the squad currently (Zubac) and so Brown would seem to have an edge in any fight for a roster spot against the other new signees Scrubb and Moon (both shooting guards).
If Brown sticks, LA's depth chart might look something like this (* = new to team; - = return from injury):
Wall*.............Jackson..................Preston
George-..........Powell...................Kennard............Coffey
Leonard-.........Covington...............Mann................Boston
Morris............Batum....................______
Zubac............Brown*(?)................______
Pretty much 13-14 guys there who can play (not counting Preston; we'll see on Brown but he won't need to do much IMO). Finally a real point guard. Etc.
Have to see how Wall looks and how George/Leonard look coming back from injuries. Also, if Brown doesn't get the job done (or even if he does ok), the Clips might still want to try to add a better big man option around, say, the buyout season.
Brown is a huge guy who seems to particularly excel at offensive rebounding. He was with the Mavs for awhile last year and I was hoping he would get more run. But he has a lot to work on. He's young (22).
Clips look stacked. As usual, much will come down to health.
