9. Antawn Jamison

After dominating as a Golden State Warrior and as a Washington Wizard, Jamison, like many others on this list, spent the twilight of his career as a Clipper. The former Sixth Man of the Year was far from his old 25 points and 10 rebounds self and only contributed 3.8 points and 2.5 points in 22 games.

 

8. Kiki Vandeweghe

Kiki Vandeweghe definitely was at his best when he was on the run-and-gun Nuggets of the 1980’s with Alex English and Dan Issel. However, due to his age, his production was drastically reduced on the Clippers. For the team, he only contributed 6.2 points per game in the last season of his career.

 

7. Tom Chambers

Unlike the majority of the other players on this list, Chambers spent the beginning of his career on the Clippers. He was drafted eighth overall in the 1981 Draft and spent two years on the team where he averaged 17.4 points and 6.8 rebounds per game. He would later go on and be on of the first stretch-bigs and would be the MVP of the legendary 1987 NBA All-Star game.

6. Jamaal Wilkes

Wilkes makes the list as the most successful player to this point. Not only is he inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame, but he also won 4 championships with our divisional rivals in 1975 with the Warriors and with the Lakers in 1980, 1982, and 1985. Silk spent his last season with the Clippers and averaged 5.8 points per game in only 13 outings.
