The Milwaukee Bucks are set to sign veteran sharpshooter Amir Coffey to a one-year deal, according to a report from ESPN's Shams Charania.

Coffey, who spent the first six seasons in his career with the Los Angeles Clippers, averaged 9.7 points per game last season on 47.1% shooting from the floor. He also shot nearly 41% from beyond-the-arc.

Coffey will help replace some of the shooting on the perimeter lost in the rotation with the departures of Damian Lillard and Pat Connaughton.
