The Los Angeles Lakers just could not say no to the two-man duo of Nick Young and Jordan Hill.
So they have decided to lock them in for the coming seasons.
Free agent forward Jordan Hill has agreed to a two-year, $18M deal to return to the Los Angeles Lakers, agent Kevin Bradbury tells Yahoo.

The 26-year-old Jordan Hill can play both positions in the front-court. He profiles as a predominantly pick-and-roll heavy player who averaged 9.7 points and 7.4 rebounds per game last season.
Re-stocking the team provides a capable roster for Kobe Bryant's return next season. Hill would presumably start in the front-court, although it's unclear as to who his partner will be. Reports indicate the Lakers are interested in retaining Pau Gasol.
