On Tuesday evening, it was reported that the Los Angeles Clippers are trading Austin Rivers to the Washington Wizards in exchange for center Marcin Gortat.
That’s a pretty decent NBA offseason story. But what truly makes this one juicy is that, in case you were unaware, Rivers just so happens to be the son of Clippers head coach Doc Rivers.
So yeah, there’s some interesting stuff going on here.
Twitter had a field day with this news.
