Clippers reportedly in talks with Knicks for Nerlens Noel
Last year Noel averaged 3.4 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.2 blocks per game
According to Michael Scotto, the Los Angeles Clippers have held ‘exploratory talks’ with the New York Knicks for Nerlens Noel.
The Clippers have a 9.7 million trade exception to acquire the big man, who will earn about 9.2 million next season.
Having reportedly promised the taxpayer mid-level exception to John Wall , the Clippers are likely to lose talented big man Isaiah Hartenstein in Free Agency.
The Knicks with this trade would free up additional space -about 24.5 million total- to make a major offer to Jalen Brunson.
