Mbah a Moute returns to Clippers on 2-year deal

Jennifer Stewart-USA TODAY Sports

Unrestricted free-agent forward Luc Mbah a Moute agreed to a two-year, $4.5-million deal to return to the Los Angeles Clippers.

The 29-year-old signed a one-year, non-guaranteed contract with the Clippers prior to the start of the 2015-16 season, where he averaged 3.1 points and 2.3 rebounds in 75 appearances, including 61 starts.

Head coach Doc Rivers ran the gamut of small forwards in his starting lineup before settling on Mbah a Moute, who provided the Clippers with lockdown perimeter defense and very little offense, which wasn't an issue considering the team was ranked sixth in offensive efficiency with him in that role.
