Texas A&M. Robert Williams. 13. player. 77. With a player option for next season, there’s no telling what happens with DeAndre Jordan. Even if he opts in, he’s a strong candidate to be traded. With how expensive his next contract will be into his 30s it makes sense to invest in a young big. The Clippers will likely look to package their two lottery picks to get into the top 10. Should they miss out on that and many of the top bigs, they can roll the dice on Robert Williams. Williams was stupidly cast as a power forward at Texas A&M, limiting his impact. He’s a monster shot-blocker and lob finisher who can also pass well. DeAndre Jordan went to Texas A&M too and that pick turned out pretty well.. C
