Avery Bradley was traded to the Detroit Pistons last summer. Now, after playing 40 games in the Motor City, Bradley was again traded, now to the Los Angeles Clippers. Alongside Tobias Harris, Bradley was included in the trade that sent Blake Griffin to Detroit.
In his first game as a Clipper, Bradley was thrown in the starting lineup and registered eight points, four assists, and two rebounds on 4-for-9 shooting from the field. After the game, Bradley spoke to the media, addressed trade rumors and spoke about playing for three different teams in a nine-month span. In a video courtesy of ClutchPoints' Tomer Azarly, Bradley said:
“Yeah, I mean, it's part of the business. I don't worry about it. You know, I went from Boston to Detroit and now I'm here. This is my focus here. And, you know, I try to control what I can control. And all I can control is going out there and playing hard and trying to get wins for the Clippers.”
Bradley's name has been linked to rumors saying the Oklahoma City Thunder is interested in his services. After losing starting shooting guard Andre Roberson to a season-ending injury, OKC needs to replace him with another capable defender, as current starter Terrance Ferguson is not helping much. Bradley would give OKC the defensive wing they need and add another genuine offensive threat, something Roberson was not.
After the Celtics' Eastern Conference Finals exit last May, nobody imagined Bradley would have already been traded twice before the 2018 All-Star break. That number could increase to three if the Thunder, or any other front office for that matter, offer the Clippers a good return in exchange for Bradley.
