NBA Trade Deadline 2019: 10 players who could use a change of scenery
By Ian Levy
7. Milos Teodosic, G, Los Angeles Clippers
Teodosic has played just 60 games for the Clippers since coming over from Europe, battling through injury and, now, an extremely crowded backcourt rotation. When he’s been on the court, he’s been sparkling (at least on offense), averaging 9.1 assists per 100 possessions and shooting 37.8 percent on 3-pointers. His passing creativity is incredibly special and if the Clippers aren’t going to use him this year, the basketball world deserves the chance to watch him throw highlight dimes somewhere else.
The Sacramento Kings have reportedly been interested in Jeremy Lin to shore up their backup point guard position. Teodosic would also be incredible in that uptempo, run-and-gun setting. Teams like the Rockets, Pelicans and Pistons could also all use his offensive genius as they jockey for playoff spots down the stretch.
