On the way to another huge pass in the NBA. Blake Griffin has become a free agent and can look for a new team, and according to senior Athletic reporter Shams Charania, he is expected to sign with Brooklyn, who was the top candidate to take him on from the start.

The 31-year-old Detroit star, who has previously been to the All-Star Games of the best league in the world six times, has reached an understanding with the club about allowing his contract – by-out. This season he should have received another $ 36.6 million, and his contract also had $ 39 million next season. The Pistons have officially announced his release and he is expected to complete the move to the Nets soon.

Quite a few teams that are candidates for the championship stared at him. Except for the Nets, the teams known for them were the Los Angeles Lakers, the Clippers (the club he broke into), Miami and Golden State. If he does get to Brooklyn, we’ll have a huge Big 4 with the big stars already there – Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving and James Harden.

It should be noted that Griffin, who joined the Pistons from the Clippers in January 2018, provides a shocking season relative to what they were used to – 12.3 points per game (negative personal record), 36.5% from the field (second worst in the league), and he has not scored a dunk since 2019.
