- Updated: June 20, 2017
According to Sam Amick of USA Today, the Los Angeles Clippers will pay Jerry West between four and five million dollars per season. Amick shared his thoughts in an article. Below is an excerpt from the article.
“According to two people with knowledge of the situation, West’s potential ability to improve the Clippers’ chances of landing the Cleveland Cavaliers star in free agency in the summer of 2018 was a significant factor in his hiring and in the willingness of owner Steve Ballmer to pay West between $4 and $5 million annually. The people spoke to USA TODAY Sports on the condition of anonymity because of the private nature of the team’s plans.”
