Congratulations to the Clippers! Conclude a three-party deal! 19+8 top inside line assists Kaharden, Jr., to strive for the championship

When I woke up, the sky of the Los Angeles Clippers changed drastically! Because in the tripartite deal that the Clippers have just reached with the Utah Jazz and the Miami Heat, they not only successfully introduced the league's top inside John Collins, but they also seem closer to potentially signing Bradley Bill, who is about to reach a contract with the Suns!

According to Shams Charania, a well-known ESPN reporter, the Los Angeles Clippers, the Utah Jazz and the Miami Heat have reached a three-party heavy deal. The specific transaction content is:

Los Angeles Clippers get John Collins;

Miami Heat get Norman Powell;

Utah Jazz get Kevin Love + Lee Kyle + 2027 second round pick (from the Los Angeles Clippers).

For the Clippers, reaching this three-party deal to introduce the league's top inside Corinth is also a good idea! According to follow-up reports by famous reporter Brett Siegel, league sources revealed that the Los Angeles Clippers and the Utah Jazz had discussed the deal about Collins and Powell before the draft, but failed because the Jazz did not find a third-party team to take over Powell's contract at the time. Now, the Jazz has successfully found the Miami Heat to take over Powell's contract, and the three-party transaction has finally been successfully concluded!

Looking at the three-party deals reached by the Los Angeles Clippers, the Utah Jazz and the Miami Heat, the Clippers are undoubtedly the biggest winner! Because they were sending out Powell not only freed up a defender for Bradley Bill's potential franchise, but also got the league's top four No. 4 Collins, and more importantly, this will force the Miami Heat to withdraw from the Bills' battle. From this we can see that the Clippers can win multiple goals in one fell swoop and make a fortune in silence!

According to well-known journalist Brett Siegel, the Miami Heat will be financially restricted after the tripartite deal is concluded because they are now restricted to the first tyrant line by the hard salary cap. This also means that the Heat will not be able to use the full middle class special case, so it will be difficult for them to sign Bradley Bill without trading other players. Therefore, the Miami Heat will most likely withdraw from the Bradley Beal battle! It is particularly worth mentioning that the Miami Heat is the biggest competitor of the Los Angeles Clippers to sign Bills in the buyout market, and they were previously in the position of Bill's next leader. The Heat's withdrawal, coupled with the fact that Bill and the Clippers were originally interested in each other, makes the Clippers closer to signing Bradley Bill, who is about to reach a buyout.

Let's look at the quasi-All-star power forward Collins obtained by the Clippers. In the 2024-25 season, Collins played 40 regular season games for the Utah Jazz, and averaged 19 points, 8.2 rebounds, 1 break and 1 attacking cap, with a shooting percentage of 52.7%, three-point shooting percentage of 39.9%, and 84.8% free throw shooting percentage. It can be seen that Collins is a space-type fourth position with outstanding outside projection capabilities. Therefore, the Clippers have joined such a top inside player with an average of 19+8 per game, which will inevitably greatly improve their inside player strength! With Collins joining, the Clippers will no longer have to let Leonard Harden take turns to the opponent's fourth position next season, because the inside combination of Collins + Zubac is enough to deal with the opponent's penalty area impact!

Congratulations to the Clippers on reaching a three-party deal! At this point, Collins officially ended his Jazz career and started a new chapter in the Clippers' career. Next season, he will join forces with Kaharden Jr. to strive for the championship with all his strength! At the same time, it also makes people vaguely feel that Bradley Bill is already on the way. If the Clippers can finally sign Bill as they wish, they will definitely have the strength to challenge any team in the league next season! Just imagine, who dares to underestimate the Clippers who have Harden, Kat Jr., Collins, Zubac, Bill, Bogdan, and Lopez at the same time?
