DeAndre Jordan may be back, but the Los Angeles Clippers’ frontcourt is by no means perfect. Two potential free agent targets that have their interest are power forwards Josh Smith and Darrell Arthur, both of whom could make a difference. The Clippers may already have a new backup center in the form of Cole Aldrich, yet another big to support Blake Griffin could go a long way in making their bench fit for the playoffs.
As it stands, the Clippers’ primary backup big men are Glen Davis, Aldrich, and rookie Branden Dawson (if his range on offense improves and his defense is enough to earn him some valuable minutes).
