Seventy-two hours after acquiring swingman Carlos Delfino and center Miroslav Raduljica as part of a trade for Jared Dudley, the LA Clippers announced that the pair has been waived.
The cost-cutting move will allow the Clips to stretch their salaries over 5 years. From the press release:
The Los Angeles Clippers announced today that the team has waived guard/forward Carlos Delfino and center Miroslav Raduljica.
Delfino and Raduljica were acquired by the Clippers on August 26, 2014 in exchange for forward Jared Dudley and a protected 2017 first round draft pick.
Uhmmmm… Why did they just give a 1st rd pick away??
It’s cost saving? The new Multi-Billion needs the $$ I suppose lol.
Multi-Billion dollar Owner**
Yep, new ownership starting things off in that old familar Clipper way. lol
Oh no, not Raduljica! I hope I can get a refund on my jersey…
