Los Angeles Clippers
The good news for the Los Angeles Clippers is that they were able to advance to their first Western Conference Finals in their franchise’s history this season.
However, the bad news is that Kawhi Leonard isn’t expected to be ready for the start of the 2021-22 season. Regardless of Leonard’s status, the Clippers have needed a point guard that can fit alongside Leonard and Paul George in recent years.
Reggie Jackson showed out in the playoffs, but Malcolm Brogdon would be a massive addition for Los Angeles next season.
With Leonard likely sidelined to start next season, Brogdon could bring some scoring and playmaking to help George keep the Clippers afloat in a competitive Western Conference.

Brogdon is a career 38.6 percent shooter from deep and he can be a nuisance on the defensive end for opposing point guards. While the Clippers are limited in assets they can trade, maybe a package that includes Luke Kennard and Patrick Beverley — along with a pick — could get a deal done for Brogdon.
