The Clippers have traded forward P.J. Tucker, backup center Mo Bamba, a future second-round draft pick and cash to the Utah Jazz for Patty Mills and Drew Eubanks, it was announced Saturday by Lawrence Frank, the team’s president of basketball operations.
Tucker, 39, who is making $11.5 million this season, has not been with the Clippers since they had training camp in Hawaii in October. The Clippers have been trying to trade the veteran forward since then.
Bamba, a backup center, appeared in 28 games with the Clippers and averaged 4.6 points and 4.3 rebounds.
Eubanks is a 6-foot-10 forward who averaged 5.8 points and 4.5 rebounds in 37 games for the Jazz while the 36-year-old Mills has played in just 17 games for Utah this season. Mills is averaging 4.4 points and 1.2 rebounds and assists.
The NBA trade deadline is Thursday.
