Souces close to Jerry West told KNBC that the Hall of Famer has been approached by the Clippers about becoming the team's next General Manager. The legendary Laker said thanks, but no thanks.

This clearly validates a report in the Boston Globe that the Clippers are considering removing Mike Dunleavy as GM at season's end. Dunleavy is currently both the GM and Coach of the Clippers, a 17-54 team mired in a dreadful season.

Sources say that West has no interest in the Clipper job. The team is reportedly interested in former Heat GM and ex-Lakers Coach Randy Pfund. Either way, it's clear that something has to change for the Clippers, and that change may be coming soon.
