The L.A. Clippers acquired the draft rights to Florida State forward Mfiondu Kabengele (Fi), the 27th overall pick in the 2019 NBA Draft, from the Brooklyn Nets, in exchange for the draft rights to UCLA guard Jaylen Hands and the Philadelphia 76ers’ 2020 first-round pick. The Clippers selected Hands with the 56th overall pick in the draft.
“The Clippers are great, just similar to Florida State University. There is team cohesion and the togetherness. [They have] Lou Williams coming off the bench as [an elite leader], Montrezl Harrell as well. Shai being a rookie and getting big-time minutes in the playoffs.
