Clippers just pulled off a bold move, signing Rui Hachimura to a two-year, $28M deal — but it’s not the end of the road for coveted restricted free agent Peyton Watson. With Hachimura eating up $14M next season, the Clippers may need to clear cap space to land Watson, who’s seeking a $25M+ contract. The smart play? A sign-and-trade with Detroit that sends Watson to Denver, using draft assets to make it work. This move keeps them over the cap — giving them flexibility to use their bi-annual exception, re-sign Mathurin via Bird rights, and still chase Watson’s big payday.
