No. 2 big time free agent for the LA Clippers to target next offseason: Aaron Gordon

Everyone loves watching Aaron Gordon play, and the LA Clippers are a lot of fun to watch too. The Clippers are so fun to watch because the roster is quick, it’s versatile, and everyone can shoot. Therefore, Aaron Gordon fits right in.

Gordon has a lot of athleticism. Many remember it very vividly even, due to his performance particularly in the 2017 Slam Dunk contest.

Gordon’s athletic, can play both forward positions in his 6’8″ frame (and has experience playing both), and is an underrated shooter. Gordon shot 33.5% from three last year as a big man, and that wasn’t even one of his best couple shooting seasons.

The truth is, Gordon is similar to some forwards already on this team. He’s long, he can play multiple positions, he’s athletic, and he has a three-point shot in his arsenal.

Gordon would fit with this team, and would give them good big man depth.
