Matt Barnes has said that Lamar Odom would be a "great addition" for the Los Angeles Clippers.
The forward has been a free agent following his one-year spell with the Clippers last season, and has reportedly been battling drug addition in recent months.
The small forward told USA Today: "I think it's great. For one, as a friend who is wanting him to get his life back on track, I think that's important. But he's an intelligent big [man] who knows how to play the game.
"Hopefully he can get himself back in shape and be a great addition to our team. I knew Doc [Rivers] wanted him in the summer, so let's just hope. I think he'd be a welcome addition to our team. He looked good [during his visit]. He was back smiling. He's great. Great personality. Great guy. His weight looked good. He looked good."
Center DeAndre Jordan added: "Just to get a veteran guy like that back on the team, just to help us, because he's more than capable of being a locker room guy and a player. He's a great player. He can help us out in so many ways. As long as he's ready to go, we definitely welcome him back with open arms."
The Los Angeles Lakers have also been linked to Odom recently.
