The LA Clippers have had quite the busy offseason. With arguably the NBA's biggest free agency move of the year being directly tied to their summer plans, things were guaranteed to be hectic. Paul George's departure sent the Clippers in a different direction, but it did not derail their plans to open up Intuit Dome with a winning team.
Of course, George was far from the Clippers' only free agent this summer. Several others and their respective decisions were also pivotal in LA's direction during this offseason. James Harden's return was of course massive, and letting Russell Westbrook leave was something of a "had to be done" sort of move.
Recently, we learned of the final destination of one other Clippers free agent: Brandon Boston Jr. According to HoopsHype, Brandon agreed to a deal with the San Antonio Spurs for next season.

LA will lose the services of the 22-year old guard, but perhaps it is for the best. With Cam Christie coming in, the amount of guards on the Clippers' roster had become a tad overpopulated, and there was not going to be playing time for everyone.
Still, some Clippers fans will probably be a bit disappointed the team gave up on the former University of Kentucky prospect. After being selected with the 51st pick of the 2021 draft, Boston played in 51 NBA games in his rookie season.
From there, Brandon simply found it harder to get on the court consistently, and his minutes per game dropped in the next two consecutive seasons. He will likely be able to find more of a niche on a team with less pressure to make the playoffs in San Antonio.
