Los Angeles Clippers
Over the course of the playoffs this year, the Los Angeles Clippers have to be happy with what they’ve seen from Reggie Jackson. Jackson has solidified himself as the third option on offense, and with Kawhi Leonard sidelined, he’s been asked to handle an expanded role alongside Paul George.
While he mustered up only 10.7 points per game during the regular season, Jackson is averaging 17.3 points per game, and he’s converting 42.3 percent of his three-point shots.
As good as Jackson has been in the postseason, the Clippers still need to improve at the point guard position this offseason. Ever since Leonard and George came to Los Angeles, the team has been seeking a point guard that meshes well with them.
The priority for the Clippers is to find someone that can facilitate the ball, along with knocking down opportunistic threes. That is something that Lonzo Ball is capable of doing as he’s shown that he’s a gifted passer, and he’s evolved into an efficient three-point shooter.

After shooting a measly 31.5 percent from beyond the arc in his first two seasons, Ball has become a 37.6 percent three-point shooter in his two years with the Pelicans. With Jackson hitting free agency this summer, the Clippers could view Ball as the missing piece in their offense.
