If DeAndre decides to stay comfortable in Los Angeles and opts in, or even committees long-term, Clippers still have many options to play with house money.

According to recent reports, the Clippers seem to be a top suitor if the Washington Wizards decide to break their back-court duo apart. It has become clear that there is some turmoil in the Wizards locker room, much like the Clippers of last year.

If the Clippers decide to swap draft picks and either Tobias Harris or (preferably) Danilo Gallinari to successfully land Bradley Beal, the team would potentially rolling with Patrick Beverley, Bradley Beal, Tobias Harris, along with Jordan and Lou Williams.

The Clippers could also hope the Wizards would be down for a potential Jordan for Beal swap, which would leave the Clippers with assets to make other moves, should they choose to do so.
