Mandatory Credit: Chris Nicoll-Imagn Images Jordan Clarkson agreed to a buyout from the Utah Jazz on Monday, and he intends to sign with the New York Knicks when he clears waivers, multiple media outlets reported on Monday.
Clarkson, four years removed from being selected the NBA's Sixth Man of the Year, played just 37 games (nine starts) last season. He missed the final 10 games because of a medical procedure designed to alleviate plantar fasciitis in his left foot.
The 33-year-old guard averaged 16.2 points, 3.7 assists and 3.2 rebounds in the 2024-25 season. He shot a career-low 40.8 percent from the floor.
Clarkson was part of the 2017-18 Cleveland Cavaliers team that reached the NBA Finals before getting swept by the Golden State Warriors.
A second-round draft pick of the Washington Wizards in 2014, Clarkson was immediately dealt to the Lakers. He played 3 1/2 seasons in Los Angeles, then parts of three seasons in Cleveland before he was traded to Utah in December 2019.
In 753 games (231 starts), Clarkson owns NBA averages of 16.0 points, 3.4 rebounds and 2.9 assists.
