Ty Lue will become the next head coach of the Los Angeles Clippers.

Lue and the Clippers agreed to a five-year deal. Lue had significant support from many key players on the Clippers.

Lue spent this past season as an assistant coach under Doc Rivers with the Clippers.

Lue also was a candidate for the Philadelphia 76ers, Houston Rockets and New Orleans Pelicans. The Los Angeles Lakers offered their head coaching job to Lue during the 2019 offseason but they were unable to agree on a contract.

The Athletic reports Lue's deal is believed to be worth approximately $35 million over five years, or $7 million annually.
