The Los Angeles Clippers reportedly aren't willing to offer shooting guard Jamal Crawford a sizable deal, which has left the door open for the Philadelphia 76ers to swoop in and potentially snag the reigning NBA Sixth Man of the Year.

The 76ers have made a "significant" offer to the 36-year-old veteran, according to the Orange County Register's Dan Woike.

Crawford has been a member of the Clippers for the past four seasons before hitting unrestricted free agency this summer. While the two sides had previously expressed interest in continuing their working relationship, a reported low-ball offer from the Clippers to the 16-year-pro could be a sign that the organization is looking to part ways.

Los Angeles has already made a couple of splashes in free agency, reportedly retaining both Wesley Johnson (three years, $18 million) and Austin Rivers (three years, $35 million).

Crawford averaged 14.2 points and 2.3 assists on 40.4 percent shooting last season, setting a new league record with the third Sixth Man of the Year win of his career.
