LA’s draft history: Ranking every #7 overall pick
Franchise-altering pieces or at least or at least All-Star caliber players are normally found with the 7th overall pick in any particular draft. The LA Clippers, however, have never been afforded such luck.
Throughout LA’s history, the franchise was given three number seven overall picks in a given draft. Each time, however, their draft picks showed brilliance before ultimately flaming out. At no point has LA even made the postseason with their number seven pick. Meaning, something is incredibly flawed with their scouting department.

Still, as we sift through countless names that they have drafted over the years, we find ourselves scratching our head at the inept selections with this pick in particular. Let’s dive into the best number seven picks in LA’s history, shall we?
