Clippers veteran P.J. Tucker is reportedly disappointed with his current status with the team, and the two sides are discussing how to address his role with the team.
While the Clippers once thought Tucker could help make up for the lack of interior line, as time went on, Tucker's ability fell short of the team's requirements. He hasn't even been on the pitch for the last six games, which has also made fans worry about his future.
However, multiple teams are reportedly watching Tucker's whereabouts, which is a good thing for both the Clippers and Tucker himself. The Clippers can get rid of Tucker's hefty contract, while Tucker can find a better fit for him at the end of his career and avoid falling out with the Clippers.
Farbodesnaashari, a reporter with the Clippers, broke the news about "Tucker may be leaving" and proposed his own plan: trade Tucker for Covington or Batum. I have to say that this brain circuit is quite strange.
Tucker has managed to get rid of his valuable contract, but now he wants to bring him backIt's unclear if PJ Tucker will go. If it had been a few seasons ago, the aging and short Tucker might have been signed by the Lakers soon.
But things are different now, and the Lakers have recognized the importance of the front line. The current Warriors may be interested in this moderately tall interior player.
While a five-short lineup made up of five undersized players has been Kerr's favorite in the past, it is unclear whether it will work again.
