Contrary to recent reports suggesting Jaylen Brown could be rerouted to the Los Angeles Clippers as part of the Boston Celtics’ aggressive pursuit of Giannis Antetokounmpo, Jake Fischer Report downplayed the murmurs and speculations in his latest NBA update for Bleacher Report. Fischer shot down the notion that the Clippers would look to go after the Celtics superstar via a massive three-team trade along with the Milwaukee Bucks, insisting that the franchise would remain committed to picking at No. 5 for the upcoming NBA Draft. “I made calls on that and I have been told that that is not true, that Los Angeles has not looked into any real avenue here at all,” the NBA insider indicated. “At this juncture, I have been told repeatedly that the Clippers have every intention to stick around the No. 5 pick and make a selection.”
