Clarkson is the guy for the full MLE. As much as I hate this player archetype, our bench could use an irrational confidence guy for like 20 minutes a game. Would be very useful for KD rest games as well. Perfect fit as long as we limit his minutes.
Al Horford is a ‘top target’ for the Golden State Warriors, per @TheSteinLine. “League sources say veteran center Al Horford will be a top target for Golden State. Jonathan Kuminga's restricted free agency, by contrast, is expected to be a slowing-moving process in Golden State. It did not appear, as of lunchtime Monday, that the Warriors or Kuminga's representation had a specific resolution in mind for the 22-year-old forward's immediate future.” The Knicks are expected to show interest in Russell Westbrook, per @TheSteinLine. “Add the Pelicans, Knicks and Timberwolves to the ever-growing list of teams said to be in the market for veteran guards. The Knicks, in fact, are said to be a possible destination — in addition to Sacramento and a potential return to Denver — for Russell Westbrook.” The Miami Heat and Chicago Bulls remain the two likeliest outside suitors for Jonathan Kuminga, per @anthonyVslater

He is 6'10, can guard the post or perimeter, and isn't a total drain on the offensive end - smart enough to know when to shoot and when to stay out of the way.
