NBA: Report, Danny Granger Will Sign With Clippers Today!
The Western Conference in the NBA just got a little more interesting. According to reports, Danny Granger, who will clear waivers today at 5pm, will sign with the Los Angeles Clippers and expects to play Saturday when they play the New Orleans Pelicans.

Let’s face it, who wants to go from a championship contender in the Pacers, to a joke of a team this year in Philly. The Heat & Spurs seemed like the more likely destinations for Granger, until the past few days when the Clippers seemed to be more involved. He is not the player he used to be a few years ago, but adding his ability in Los Angeles definitely makes them even more of a serious threat to Oklahoma City & San Antonio in the west. The Deal should be completed by this evening.

That describes both the Indiana Pacers and Seattle Seahawks.
