Ended 6 years of Clippers career! Three-pointer sharpshooter rushed to Antetokounmpo and joined the Bucks with a one-year contract

NBA free agent market has been in trouble again. Free agent forward Amir Kofi has reached a one-year deal with the Milwaukee Bucks, officially ending his six-year Los Angeles Clippers career, according to authoritative journalist Shams Charania. There are currently differences in the information around the details of Kofi's new contract. Salary expert Keith Smith praised the Bucks' operations, believing that Coffey is an "excellent choice", and pointed out that this is likely to be a basic salary contract, which can be called "one of the most cost-effective signings" in the offseason. However, Bucks reporter Eric Nehm revealed that the two sides signed a training camp contract.

This difference stems from the current lineup of the Bucks. Currently, there are 15 players on the Bucks who hold regular contracts, among which Andre Jackson Jr.'s contract is partially guaranteed. This means that Coffey will likely compete fiercely with Jackson in training camp for a valuable final place to stay.

Coffey's value is clear and clear: he is a reliable outside pitcher. During his time with the Clippers last season, he played in 72 games (13 starts), delivering a record of 9.7 points, 2.2 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game. What is even more impressive is his shooting efficiency - his overall shooting percentage is 47.1%, and his three-point shooting percentage is as high as 40.9%. In the offensive system created by the Bucks around "Antetokounmpo" Giannis Antetokounmpo, Coffey is expected to perfectly play the wing role of "receive the ball and shoot" to open up space for the team to provide the team with much-needed external fire support.

Coffey, 28, lost in the 2019 draft and started his career with the Clippers. With his efforts, he won a formal contract of $11 million in 2022. In the six seasons he played for the Clippers, Coffey played a total of 323 regular season games, averaging 6.7 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game, and his three-point shooting percentage was stable at 38.4%.
