With Russell Westbrook's tenure with the Los Angeles Clippers reportedly in jeopardy, they've been linked to future Hall of Famers.

The Los Angeles Clippers may look to improve from veteran reserve point guard Russell Westbrook this summer, reports Marc Stein in his latest Substack.Next season, the 6-foot-3 UCLA product owns a $4 million player option, but it sounds like he could have some competition for the gig from a pair of fellow Future Hall of Famers.According to Stein, both Golden State Warriors reserve guard Chris Paul and Philadelphia 76ers guard Kyle Lowry are being eyed by the Clippers.

Lowry, a six-time All-Star and one-time All-NBA Teamer while with the Toronto Raptors, also won a title with the franchise in 2019, as its second-best player behind Finals MVP Kawhi Leonard.Last season with Miami and Philadelphia , the 6-foot vet averaged 8.1 points on a .432/.392/.840 slash line, 4.2 assists, 3.2 rebounds, and one steal a night.Both Paul and Lowry, while similarly ancient, could be better fits for L.A. than Westbrook.
