9. Los Angeles Clippers

It’s time to evaluate a deal that moves Kevin Durant to an organization that has been seen as a poverty franchise for many years. The Los Angeles Clippers are desperate to be held to a higher standard and Durant would undoubtedly be the best player to ever suit up for the Clippers.

So far this season, the Clips have gone above and beyond everyone’s expectations. People scoffed when Louis Williams suggested that LA belonged to the Clippers. Yet, nearly halfway through the season, the Clippers have a higher win percentage than the Lakers.

The Clippers could offer up a few of their scrappy players in order to obtain the superstar player they want so badly. Tobias Harris, Louis Williams, Montrez Harrell and two draft picks would be their best bet at creating a package for Durant.

Harris is having a career-year, averaging 20.9 points and 8.0 rebounds a game. Williams has always been a reliable bench scorer and Harrell provides grit and hustle for any team. These three would fit in quickly with the Warriors.
