New Additions
New Additions
In recent days
the Clippers came to terms on two deals that will see Jordan Poole and Noah
Clowney part ways for the team’s new additions in big man John Collins and guard
Keyonte George
The Trade’s
Clippers Trade –
Jordan Poole, Noah Clowney, Nick Smith Jr & 2 x 2nd round picks
Clippers Receive
– John Collins, Keyonte George & 2x 2nd round picks
Adding John
Collins will be a huge addition for the Clippers with a glaring hole up front
in the big man rotation hopefully bringing some athleticism and rebounding to
the team.
Keyonte George
was an unexpected addition and a player we are banking on becoming a starting
calibre guard in the future, while it was hard losing Noah, we felt he was a)
not a true centre and never realistically going to get a fair go behind the
Clippers true PF’s in Paolo, Tari or even Tobias Harris, Trey Murphy for that
matter
Whereas Keyonte
has a shot at becoming the team’s starting PG of the future competing with
Cason Wallace for the job.
Clippers management
are now somewhat happier with the team’s balance across the board and are
looking forward to Paolo re joining the rotation in the coming weeks to get a
true indication of where the team stands amongst the truly elite teams
·
C –
John Collins, Moritz Wagner
·
PF –
Paolo Banchero, Tobias Harris
·
SF –
Trey Murphy, Tari Eason
·
SG –
Jalen Williams, Jordan Hawkins
·
PG –
Cason Wallace, Keyonte George
While happier
with the rotation and balance this is not the end of the rotation additions
with one sole roster spot free and 19 million available to spend on a player we
can guarantee their will be an addition in the coming weeks who exactly that is
will be decided upon once Paolo returns and the players deemed surplus to requirements
offered up via the trade block
As I type the
current crop of players on the block are Kris Murray, Kobe Bufkin both players
who are still valued highly and recent lottery picks but could make way for an “upgrade”
