With the Los Angeles Clippers’ season coming to a close, we looked back and assessed every player that donned their threads this year.
It’s been a tumultuous season for the Los Angeles Clippers, a team that endured injury after injury and used a league-high 36 different starting lineups because losing Chris Paul in the offseason wasn’t enough of a sacrifice to please the Basketball Gods.
After starting the season 4-0, Los Angeles would win just one of its next 12 games, losing Patrick Beverley and Danilo Gallinari along the way.
Not a single one of their players will be active for all 82 games, either. Even DeAndre Jordan, the Clippers’ own Ironman, missed a few games due to injury.
It’s unclear who will be returning for next year’s campaign and who won’t, but for now, lets focus on how each player performed (when they were physically able) this season. No incomplete grades will be assessed, simply because there would be too many. Instead, we’ll mainly be focusing on what they accomplished when they were active on the court. Expectations and overall improvement will also play large factors.
Let’s dive in.
