Veteran forward P.J. Tucker was benched for 5 games, his future with the Clippers uncertain.
P.J. Tucker is frustrated with his role with the Los Angeles Clippers, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic.
Discussions are underway between both parties to find a resolution, either within the Clippers or potentially elsewhere, per the same report.
Tucker has been absent from the Clippers' lineup in the last five games, finding himself completely out of the rotation. This development has caught the attention of several contending teams, who are reportedly closely monitoring his situation.
The veteran forward is owed $11 million for the current season, with a $11.5 million player option for the next.
Tucker, 38, is on his fifth different team in the last four seasons. He has averaged 1.3 points and 2.9 points over 15 games this season.
