Rockets sign Clippers Bogdan Bogdanovic

The Houston Rockets are adding to their depth by assigning former Los Angeles Clippers guard Bogdan Bogdanovich. ESPN insider Shams Charania was the first to report the news.

“Free agent Bogdan Bogdanovic has agreed to a one-year deal with the Houston Rockets, sources tell ESPN. Rockets executives recruited Bogdanovic tonight and now land an established, playoff-tested shooter for his 10th NBA season,” Charania tweeted.

Bogdanovic turns 34 in August, but he could still provide a spark off the bench for the Rockets. Bogdanovic only played in 23 games for the Clippers last season, averaging a career-low 7.4 points per game.

His best season came in the 2023-24 campaign, which was his fourth and final year with the Atlanta Hawks. He averaged 16.9 points per game while making 37.4 percent of his shots from beyond the arc. He finished fifth in the Sixth Man of the Year voting behind Norman Powell, Bobby Portis, Malik Monk, and Naz Reid.

Bogdanovic could possibly serve as a replacement for Josh Okogie or Jae’Sean Tate, who are both free agents this offseason. The Rockets could still bring back either Okogie or Tate, but this move suggests that one of them might not be coming back to the team next season.
