MADRID (AP) - Real Madrid said Thursday it has agreed to sign veteran NBA center Alex Len to a contract until June 2027.
The 32-year-old Ukrainian played last season for the Sacramento Kings and Los Angeles Lakers in his 12th NBA campaign.
The 7-foot Len was traded from Sacramento to Washington this past February as part of the multi-team deal that sent Marcus Smart to the Wizards. Washington subsequently waived Len, who played for the Wizards during the 2020-21 season before joining the Kings as a free agent.
Len was selected at No. 5 overall in the 2013 NBA draft by the Phoenix Suns. The Maryland alum has also played for the Atlanta Hawks and Toronto Raptors.
He played part of this year´s preseason with the New York Knicks.
Madrid is the former team of Luka Doncic and is one of Europe's most successful clubs.
