While free agency has been at ease, a major holdup that briefly stalled the market was Bradley Beal's buyout with the Phoenix Suns. It had grown a pair of legs and began to walk, but nothing officially took off until earlier this week when everything was finalized and he signed with the LA Clippers.
Moreover, players connected to the Clippers, one way or another, are out on the job hunt. Chris Paul, a fan favorite, is expected to sign with LA, and others, such as Brandon Boston Jr., Bones Hyland, and Amir Coffey, have received interest and will likely end up playing somewhere before the NBA's opening night.
