Eric Bledsoe returns to LA for second stint with Clippers

The LA Clippers have traded Patrick Beverley, Rajon Rondo and Daniel Oturu to the Memphis Grizzlies in exchange for Eric Bledsoe. ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski was the first to report the deal, which was confirmed by the Clippers on Monday afternoon.

“We are excited to add Eric, a strong, versatile guard and an established playmaker who can attack the paint and defend multiple positions,” Clippers president of basketball operations Lawrence Frank said Monday. “Eric started his career with the Clippers and we’re delighted to bring him back.”
