The Los Angeles Clippers are reportedly meeting with representatives for free-agent forward Anthony Tolliver.

Shams Charania of Yahoo Sports reported Clippers brass flew to Dallas to meet with Tolliver on Sunday.

Tolliver, 33, spent the 2017-18 season with the Detroit Pistons. He averaged 8.9 points and 3.1 rebounds per game.

The former undrafted free agent has played for nine teams over his 10 NBA seasons. The Clippers would be his 10th.

Tolliver seems to be a free agent who would only command a short contract for less than the mid-level exception. He's a quality big coming off the bench and hit 43.6 percent from three-point range.

The Clippers are in the midst of a full-scale roster rebuild after losing Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan in the course of less than 13 months.

Tolliver would essentially just be a guy who helps keep the Clippers competitive, but they're going to be near the bottom of the West regardless of what happens in these negotiations.
