If Kawhi Leonard is heading to the Los Angeles Clippers, suddenly they are a team favored to come out of the Western Conference and therefore an appealing destination for Marcus Morris.

As the Clippers are expected to have interest once free agency begins, playing for a coach like Doc Rivers and a team as deep as the Clippers has to be appealing. There is also a chance he will be teammates once again with Al Horford, who is also rumored in connection with the Clippers.

With the Clippers looking to fill the void left by Wilson Chandler, a big wing like Marcus Morris would be an ideal fit along with his toughness and attitude.

There is also his history with playing LeBron James tough defensively. If Leonard does end up with the Clippers, the city of Los Angeles will have quite the rivalry brewing between their two teams.

With Anthony Davis playing alongside LeBron, Morris would be an intriguing player to throw in the mix of the inter-city NBA war.
