He joins a Clippers team that’s chasing its first title. The Clippers haven’t made the Finals since getting both Kawhi Leonard and Paul George and made the trade as an attempt to capitalize on what’s remaining of the prime of George and Leonard’s careers. Los Angeles was the No. 5 favorite in the West behind the Denver Nuggets, Phoenix Suns, Los Angeles Lakers and Golden State Warriors before the season began and, coincidentally, had the same title odds as the Sixers. Now the Clippers are just ahead of the Warriors and Lakers and only behind the Nuggets and Suns among teams in the West.
The Clippers are tied with the Warriors at +700 to win the Western Conference and significantly behind the Nuggets and Suns . The Lakers are at +900 to win the West, while the Mavericks are at +1200.
