The Los Angeles Clippers have signed second-year wing Jordan Miller to a four-year, $8.3 million standard NBA contract, promoting him from his two-way deal, sources tell ESPN’s Shams Charania.

To make room, the Clippers will waive forward MarJon Beauchamp.

Miller, the 48th pick in the 2023 draft, played limited NBA minutes as a rookie but has taken on a larger role in 2024/25, averaging 4.7 points, 1.7 rebounds, and 1.1 assists in 30 games.

He was nearing the 50-game limit for two-way players, prompting the Clippers to convert his contract and open a new two-way slot before the March 4 deadline.

While Miller’s NBA contributions have been modest, he has excelled in the G League, averaging 23.9 PPG on efficient shooting this season.

His new contract will use part of the Clippers’ mid-level exception and reportedly includes minimal guarantees beyond this season, offering roster flexibility.

Beauchamp, the 24th pick in 2022, has struggled to establish himself in the NBA, averaging 4.2 PPG in 129 career games.

The Clippers acquired him from Milwaukee at the trade deadline in a salary-focused move, and they will not carry any dead money for him beyond this season.
