With still a few more months before the start of this year's free agency, the talks on where some of the big names will end up playing next are already starting to intensify. That includes LeBron James, who is expected to be one of the highly coveted players starting July 1.
While many teams will make their pitches to try and secure his services, L.A. Clippers forward Danilo Gallinari recently made it known that he prefers their current team than having him part of their fold. He gave the same answer when asked twice, via TMZ Sports, making it clear that if he had it his way, he likes to have their full roster return next season.
The Clippers are currently in seventh place in the Western Conference, but with them virtually tied with three other teams, the Denver Nuggets, Utah Jazz and San Antonio Spurs, they are going to be part of the dog fight for one of the last playoff spots. James' potential addition to them will be a huge boost, which could make them instant title contenders, but Gallinari may be believing that they already have all the personnel they need and just needs to play more together.
The Italian international already gave his take on James possibly joining the Clippers, but the team is still expected to pursue him once he becomes a free agent. His chances of joining them is unclear, but one thing that's certain is wherever he lands, he will give that franchise a promising future.
