Clippers Match Tyrone Wallace's Offer Sheet With Pelicans 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Thu Sep 6, 2018 1:14 am

The Los Angeles Clippers have matched the offer sheet Tyrone Wallace signed with the New Orleans Pelicans.


The Clippers now have 17 contracts on their roster, which will require them to make multiple roster moves before the season stars.

Poor Pels, can't even get a guy like this, maybe should have upped it a bit?

Pretty sure Pels had no intent. Clips probably just asked his agent to get an offer sheet.

Either a trade happens, such as that proposed by an above post, or West prefers him to Evans and Thornwell?

Honestly, the Clippers are prolly just looking for players that will be cheap and useful to fill out the roster over the next off season or two while they look for 2 max players to sign. Wallace showed some signs last year that he could fit that bill.

Thing is, they've got too many of them at the moment.
