NBA Trade Rumors: 4 teams that should target Kyrie Irving after recent trade demand

LA Clippers

If Kyrie Irving is going to work on another team, this season or beyond, it’s likely going to be for one that has veteran stars on it. I don’t think you can manage with Kyrie Irving being your best player and win a lot of games in the NBA, or even manage as him being the leader of your roster – on or off the court.

That said, especially considering that this team is looking for point guard help heading into the trade deadline, the LA clippers seem like a natural possible suitor for Kyrie. They have the veteran leadership in Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, along with a strong figure as their head coach in Ty Lue, and this is a team that might just be a piece away from contention in the Western Conference.

Again, none of these teams are going to be the ideal situation for Kyrie, but the Clippers may be a stabilized enough organization and situation where they could get away with using him as a rental for half of the season.
