Los Angeles Clippers
The time seems to be winding down for Kawhi Leonard and Paul George to win a ring together on the Los Angeles Clippers. After blowing a 3-1 lead in the playoffs in their first season together in 2019-2020, the Clippers are amid a 2-2 series versus the Dallas Mavericks, a rematch of last year’s first round series.
While Leonard and George have pulled their weight this season, they are desperate for a third option on the offensive end. Also, it should be noted that it’s been well-documented that the Clippers have been searching for an offensive-minded point guard in recent years.
The duo of Patrick Beverley and Reggie Jackson has worked in certain moments, but just hasn’t seemed to give Los Angeles what they are really looking for.

Being able to snag Derrick Rose in NBA free agency would be a massive win for the Clippers, especially with Leonard having the ultimate say about his future with the franchise. There’s no question that Leonard and George would welcome the idea of having a point guard like Rose to lighten the load off of their shoulders.
