Former Milwaukee Bucks forward/guard Sterling Brown has agreed to a one-year deal with the Houston Rockets, sources confirmed to ESPN.

Brown, 25, will sign for the veteran's minimum to provide wing depth for the Rockets. He averaged 5.2 points and 3.1 rebounds in three seasons for the Bucks. Yahoo Sports first reported the deal.

Brown was thrust into the national spotlight when he was the victim of a police brutality incident in Milwaukee on Jan. 26, 2018.

Brown reached a reached a $750,000 settlement agreement in his civil rights lawsuit against the city of Milwaukee earlier this month.

Brown alleged that Milwaukee officers targeted him outside a Walgreens store because he is Black. They used a stun gun when he didn't immediately remove his hands from his pockets when ordered to while waiting for a parking citation.

He first filed the lawsuit in June 2018 after body-camera footage was released showing a Milwaukee police officer stepping on his ankle during the arrest while others mocked his potential civil rights complaint.
