The Clippers signed Stepheson, who went to high school at Harvard-Westlake in North Hollywood, to a 10-day contract after the 6-10 forward averaged 15.9 points and a league-high 13.8 rebounds per game for the NBA Development League’s Iowa Energy.
Shortly after participating in the 2016 D-League All-Star Game, Stepheson was back with his D-League team when head coach Bob Donewald, Jr. told the team in the middle of practice Stepheson was going to the Clippers.
