Playoff hopefuls including the Philadelphia 76ers, Miami Heat, Milwaukee Bucks, and Phoenix Suns have engaged in trade talks with Los Angeles Clippers wing P.J. Tucker's representation, sources told Kelly Iko and Law Murray of the Athletic.

The 13-year veteran has been training separately from the Clippers while the two parties try to find a trade destination. The team acquired Tucker from the Philadelphia 76ers at the beginning of 2023 as part of the James Harden deal.

The 39-year-old also spent two different stints with the Suns and won a title as a member of the Milwaukee Bucks in 2021.

The NBA fined Tucker $75,000 in February after he publicly expressed his desire to be traded. He only appeared in 28 games for L.A. last season, tallying 1.6 points and 2.5 rebounds per contest.

He opted into the final year of his $11.5-million contract during the offseason but did not appear in the Clippers' season-opening loss to the Phoenix Suns.
