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