The LA Clippers reportedly have an interest in Chicago Bulls’ power forward Thaddeus Young. This report comes via the LA Times in an article exploring the trade value of Maurice Harkless.
The article notes that if the Clippers do pull off a trade for a player like Young, Harkless’ salary is likely going to be used to make a trade work.
Trading Young for Harkless straight up does work according to the ESPN Trade Machine. While the team could also include a pick (they can still trade this year’s first-rounder), adding young guard Jerome Robinson to the deal still makes the numbers work.
