By Bryan Rose
While Thabo Sefolosha will likely never be a household name, he’s still a very talented two-way guard and given that, it’s not exactly shocking that a handful of NBA teams have expressed interest in signing the 30-year-old talent.

Rumors have swirled the past few weeks that a multitude of teams were set to entertain the thought of signing the swingman in free agency and in the hours since the flood gates opened, the Los Angeles Clippers, Dallas Mavericks and Houston Rockets have all expressed interest in signing Sefolosha.
Of course, it’s very likely that Thabo Sefolosha is a consolation prize for the Houston Rockets and Dallas Mavericks in case they’re left at the alter by fellow free agent, Carmelo Anthony. The Los Angeles Clippers however aren’t in the Anthony sweepstakes (at least not from a free agent standpoint) and could be looking to add Sefolosha to the bench. However, they don’t have anything to offer outside of their mid-level exception and it’s not known if that will be enough to sway him in free agency, especially if another team is willing to offer more money.
In addition, the Oklahoma City Thunder are said to be interested in bringing Thabo Sefolosha back however they have yet to reach out to him officially, this according to RealGM.
Whatever the case may be, it’s clear he’ll have his choice of suitors this offseason and shouldn’t have any trouble finding a winning franchise to be apart of. Who exactly, though, will figure itself out in the coming days.
