2005 #1 overall pick in the NBA draft Andrew Bogut will be joining Ivica Zubac and the Los Angeles Lakers on a 1-year contract for the 2017/18 season. Bogut was last seen playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers last season, being traded in a playoff push, but only lasted 58 seconds before breaking his leg in his debut.
Bogut is an Australian-born Croatian raised in Melbourne. He nearly chose to play for Croatia in his youth before Australia gave him an offer he couldn’t refuse. The 32 year-old Bogut is in the twilight of his career and will be playing for former Golden State assistant coach, Luke Walton, who is now the head coach in Los Angeles. Bogut will join 20 year-old Croatian Ivica Zubac and veteran Brooke Lopez at the center position.
