Antawn Jamison is joining up with Kobe Bryant and Steve Nash to chase a championship with the Los Angeles Lakers.

Jamison will sign a one-year deal with the Lakers, a person with direct knowledge of the decision told The Associated Press on Wednesday.

The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the Lakers hadn't announced the move.

The 36-year-old forward will sign for the veteran's minimum salary, likely bolstering the Lakers' woeful bench with scoring and veteran leadership while pursuing the first championship ring in a career largely spent as the best player on bad teams.

Pretty good guy to plug into the Lamar Odom-role.  Jamison really struggled to score efficently last year - he put up 17ppg but shot a career low 40% from the field.  Either way, great guy to add to the team for the vet minimum.
