5 roster moves the LA Clippers need to make this offseason: 4. Re-sign Isaiah Hartenstein
The Clippers took a punt on Isaiah Hartenstein prior to the 2021-22 season. The big man had played for three teams in his three-year NBA career before he signed with them, never really producing solid numbers on a decent team.
Hartenstein played one and a half seasons for the Houston Rockets before being waived. He was then signed by the Denver Nuggets, playing only 30 games before being traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers. This is where Hartenstein started to show his true potential, averaging 8.3 points per game.
That is what he averaged with the Clippers but was more effective, shooting the ball at 62.6 percent from the floor. This was the first time in his career that Hartenstein had shot the ball at more than 60 percent for an entire season.
His combination with Zubac made sure that the Clippers had a rebounding presence on the floor at all times. Hartenstein played for a minimum salary last season and should play for a similar amount again.
The Clippers are going to need him to not demand much more or they will not be able to re-sign him. The ability to compete for a championship could sway his decision.
