Los Angeles Clippers Receive: Julius Randle, Dennis Smith Jr., Austin Rivers
New York Knicks Receive: Marcus Morris Sr., Patrick Beverley
Julius Randle would be the centerpiece of this deal but there are some other big names that would be on the move. The New York Knicks could get Marcus Morris Sr. back after trading him to the Los Angeles Clippers last season for a first-round pick.
Patrick Beverley has a personality that belongs in New York. He would help right away at the point guard position. Between Frank Ntilikina and Dennis Smith Jr., there hasn’t been much for production. Having Beverley along with Immanuel Quickley and Elfrid Payton would help.
The Clippers would balance their team even further with the addition of Randle. Veteran Austin Rivers would be a helpful piece off the bench to add depth. As for Dennis Smith Jr., he is a player who could use a change of scenery. He has been a complete disappointment in New York.
Let’s break this deal down further and see how it would help both teams moving forward.
