The LA Clippers’ front office, in short, is brilliant. All summer long, they’ve added tough player after tough player, either by signing or through trade, while still maintaining the cap space to sign superstar free agent Kawhi Leonard. The latest case, involving Rodney McGruder, is no different.
According to Yahoo’s Chris Haynes, the Clippers and McGruder came to an agreement on a three-year deal worth $15 million on Tuesday night. The initial reaction from fans was panic — wouldn’t this interfere with LA’s chances of signing Leonard?
The answer to that question is no.
