Pro: Great floor-spacer

Bradley may not be an elite scorer, but he’s still a terrific 3-point shooter.

He’s struggled in six games with the Clippers, shooting 11 percent from deep, but Bradley’s real shooting prowess is closer to the 38 percent he shot in 40 games with Detroit.

Assuming the Clippers retain DeAndre Jordan, Bradley’s shooting allows for a clearer lane for Jordan in the pick-and-rolls, as well as wider driving lanes for Lou Williams.

His shooting ability combined with his elite defense makes Bradley a coveted 3-and-D player.

He may not be a star player, but every team needs role players capable of bringing a specific skill-set to the game. Bradley is the type of player capable of hitting those timely 3s in the perfect situation, making him one of the best role players in the NBA.
