While the Thunder may be the quietest when it comes to the Danny Granger sweepstakes, but it does make sense. When it comes to depth, the Thunder could use some help in case of another injury to a top player and he could give Durant a much-needed rest down the stretch and take some pressure off him.
Miami and Danny Granger haven't always gotten along. In fact, in the 2012 playoffs, Granger got in the face of many Heat players, adding an extra chippy attitude to the series. However, the Heat must decide whether they want to pursue Caron Butler or Granger during each of their buyouts.
Apparently, Gregg Popovich and the San Antonio Spurs are trying to sway the 30-year-old small forward into signing with them by promising him a Robert Horry-like role. Well, if he wants to win an NBA title, this may be his best option with an experienced team like the Spurs. They will likely be fighting for a title in May and June.
The Los Angeles Clippers have become "frontrunners" to land Granger, according to Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports. Granger wants to play for a contender, and there might be no more exciting team to be part of than the Clippers. The first-place Clippers' roster seems pretty set, but adding Granger could make them as deep as any team.
The Chicago Bulls are still fighting for a playoff spot, and Granger would help them reach their goal. The Bulls have reported interest in the veteran forward, according to Wojnarowski. It's starting to look like the Bulls are the team on the outside looking in. However, crazier things have happened in free agency.
