What happened: The Clippers confirmed Baba Miller's contract is fully finalized, closing out a signing process that began with his selection as a second-round pick. The club made the completion of the deal official in a post announcing the deal is done.

Why it matters: A guaranteed multiyear deal for a second-round pick is uncommon; most players in that draft slot land on two-way or non-guaranteed terms. The move signals the Clippers see the four-year contract reported Friday as a rotation investment rather than a camp flier.

What to watch: Miller now turns to earning minutes once the Clippers open camp for the 2026-27 season.
