Clippers Reportedly Targeting Trade for Andre Iguodala

As it currently stands, Andre Iguodala is a Memphis Grizzlies player, as he was dealt in order to make the Kevin Durant/D'Angelo Russell sign-and-trade cap numbers workout. However, with Memphis still in a rebuild, Iguodala is likely to either be bought out or moved elsewhere.

Even though the Rockets are currently trying to facilitate a move for Iguodala, Doc Rivers and the Clippers are trying to swipe him right out from under their noses.

A deal with Memphis could be hard to come by, however, as some are reporting that the Grizzlies will take Iguodala into the season with them unless they receive a trade with a first round pick in it. Considering both these teams sold their futures to Oklahoma City, that could exclude them from a deal.

A first round pick is a pretty big ask for a veteran who hasn't played more than 27 minutes per game in the past five seasons, but Memphis has set their price tag.

5.7 points and 3.7 rebounds per game may not seem very valuable, but anyone with a functioning brain could see that Iguodala was the glue that held those Warriors championship teams together.

Both the Clippers and the Rockets are in need of that kind of player, one of them is probably going to cave and move for Iguodala, and hopefully for their sake, Memphis' brings down their asking price just a bit.
