Eubanks birthday is today lmao

Eubanks is probably the only player who will play minutes from this trade.

I assume Tucker gets bought out but what can you expect from a dude nearing 40 years of age who hasn't played in a few years.

Well this is pointless for Utah. Make all the sense in the world for the Clippers.

I think Utah probably should have gotten one a couple of more 2nds. Seems like a light return

So the Clippers get off 5 Mio of Salary. Does this open up anything for them or whats the point of this trade?

I remember when some Raps fans were obsessed with. Bamba. He is a legit bust now right?

To get off money for a player they weren’t going to play. This is a good deal for them.

Too bad the Clips aren't getting Patty 2-3 years ago. He'd solve all of their issues besides backup 5.

By taking them under the tax I believe it also opens up more cap allowance in buyout market?
