Source: Ex-Pacer Danny Granger heading to the Clippers

One week after being traded by the Indiana Pacers, Danny Granger is expected to sign with the Los Angeles Clippers, a source told the Indianapolis Star late Thursday night.

Granger, 30, will have to wait to sign a contract on Friday after he clears waivers.

Last Thursday, the Pacers dealt Granger to the Philadelphia 76ers and the two sides recently reached a buyout deal, allowing him to sign with a team with title hopes.

Granger joins a Clippers team (40-20) currently ranked fourth in the Western Conference but boasts All-Stars in point guard Chris Paul as well as power forward Blake Griffin. Granger, a career 38-percent shooter from the 3-point arc, should fit in Los Angeles where the dunks and the 3-pointers fly freely.

The Clippers rank sixth in the NBA in overall shooting percentage (47.3) but could use a lift as sharp shooter J.J. Redick is out indefinitely and sixth man scorer Jamal Crawford recently suffered a strained left calf on Wednesday.

Los Angeles hosts the New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday night.
