Since the beginning of the season, the rumors swirling around the NBA were that the Los Angeles Lakers and Clippers, as well as the New York Knicks, were the favorites to land Durant if he were to leave the Warriors.

The Clippers have been lurking very quietly behind the scenes, setting themselves up to be in a good situation to land a superstar (or even two, with the right cap management).
