Overview
- The Clippers announced on Monday that they signed center Jamarion Sharp to a one‑year two‑way contract that will let him split time between the NBA club and its G League affiliate.
- Sharp is listed at 7‑foot‑5, which places him above Victor Wembanyama on official rosters and makes him the tallest active player on an NBA roster after the signing.
- Sharp earned the 2025–26 NBA G League Defensive Player of the Year award after leading the league in blocks, averaging roughly 3.8–3.9 blocks per game while with the Texas Legends.
- Media reports list limited financial terms for the deal and note that a two‑way contract does not guarantee regular NBA minutes, so Sharp is likely to continue significant G League play as he competes for Clippers minutes.
- Some outlets published a 2024 aggravated assault charge tied to Sharp that public records do not clearly resolve, and coverage of that matter is limited and unconfirmed by official sources.
