When it comes to the LA Clippers starting lineup options next year, there’s not a lot of ways they can go wrong.

My starting lineup would be:

PG: Reggie Jackson

SG: Paul George

SF: Nicolas Batum

PF: Marcus Morris Sr.

C: Serge Ibaka

While there are plenty of different combinations that could work for the Clippers, there’s one player in particular in this starting lineup who I think has the highest chance of resorting to a sixth-man role off of the bench, and that’s Nicolas Batum.
