No, this rumor isn’t completely new. Back in December the Los Angeles Clippers appeared as a team interested in Shabazz Muhammad of the Minnesota Timberwolves, a young power wing player who would be a valuable addition. He has good size at 6’6″, athleticism, a strong post game for a perimeter player, and better defense than liabilities such as Jamal Crawford and Paul Pierce. It makes sense the Clippers were interested, and now it’s been reported by Darren Wolfson that that’s still the case.
Newton's first real test: whether to move Shabazz.
