He has been a teammate with Westbrook and Durant before! Bill joins the Clippers and joins forces with Harden

It is reported that Bill has officially reached a buyout agreement with the Suns and will join the Clippers. Bill had two years left for the original contract. In order to allow the Sun to cut it off with extended terms, Bill had to give up $13.8 million, but the remaining contract amount was still as high as $97 million, and the Sun would pay him in five years. After being bought out by the Suns, Bill reached a two-year, $11 million contract with the Clippers. The Clippers use the remaining part of the full middle-class special case to sign Bill, who will get $5.334 million and $5.6217 million from the Clippers in the next two years.
It is worth mentioning that although Bill was bought out by the Sun, he still has strong strength. Bill was the 2012 Tanhua Show and played for the Wizards for the first 11 seasons of his career. In June 2023, Bill was traded to the Suns and formed the Big Three with Durant and Booker.
Because the three Suns' giants do not match each other, the Suns' performance in the last two seasons is very average. Bill played in a total of 106 regular season games in his career, averaging 32.7 minutes per game, scoring 17.6 points, 3.9 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1 steal. Compared with his peak period, Bill's data still declined significantly. However, Bill is only 32 years old at the moment. As long as he stays healthy, he can still perform very well. After Bill joins the Clippers, he will also join forces with Leonard and Harden. The combination of the three of them can be regarded as the Big Three. However, the three of them are not young, and they have passed their peak period, and they have some hidden dangers of injury. It is hard to say whether they can perform like this, but they should still be much better than the Big Three of the Suns.
Interestingly, after Harden became a teammate, Bill has been teammates with the Third Young Master of Thunder. In the 20-21 season, Westbrook was traded by the Rockets to the Wizards, and Bill was a teammate with Westbrook for a year. This year, Bill also averaged 30+ per game, and Westbrook once again became the triple-double king. After being traded to the Suns, Bill became teammates with Durant and became teammates for two years. However, beside Durant and Booker, Bill can only be the third giant, and his performance has declined a lot.
Judging from the post-season situation, Bill's previous cooperation with Westbrook and Durant was not successful, and neither of them could break through the first round. After becoming teammates with Harden, Bill should have hope of breaking through the first round. Although the Clippers were not as good as the Nuggets in the first round last season, after getting new players such as Lopez, Collins, and Bills, the Clippers' strength has been significantly enhanced, and there should be great hope of breaking through the first round next season.
