After being traded to the Boston Celtics and subsequently released just hours later, pint-sized point guard Nate Robinson is looking for a new NBA home. Might that be the Los Angeles Clippers? If they have their way it will be.
Currently the Clippers are still trying to work out the final and rather complicated details of an Austin Rivers trade, but are said to have strong interest in signing the veteran Robinson.
Have been told Clippers would still have interest in a bought-out Nate Robinson even if Austin Rivers trade goes through as expected.

Of course, the Clippers aren’t a team that relies heavily on their bench so it reamins to be seen just how many minutes Nate Robinson would get if he was to sign with better Los Angeles based basketball team.
The Clippers aren’t the only team with interest in bringing Robinson aboard, so if he’s looking for more minutes he might find a better home elsewhere. Though if he’s looking to win, he’s probably not going to find any better scenarios outside of signing with the Clippers.
It’s been said the Cleveland Cavaliers are also in the mix for Nate Robinson, a team where he’d likely get more minutes.
