The Los Angeles Clippers just got Darius Garland earlier this year when they sent James Harden to the Cleveland Cavaliers to get much younger at point guard.
But after Sunday's NBA Draft lottery, there's a very real path in which Garland gets traded again.
The Clippers wouldn't have had a first-round pick if Indiana's selection stayed in the top-four. Instead, it ended up at No. 5, and that became the Clippers' spot thanks to the Ivica Zubac trade.
The fifth pick is one of the most fascinating spots in this particular draft class, as long as the top-four plays out as expected. Most view this draft as having a clear first four picks, in some order consisting of AJ Dybantsa, Darryn Peterson, Cameron Boozer and Caleb Wilson.
