After the LA Clippers traded for a superstar talent in Paul George, they were left with minimal first-round draft picks over the next ten years. This essentially meant that each year the players and coaches had to remain at the top of the Western Conference, or the season would be seen as a failure.
However, that is not the case this offseason. Though the LA Clippers did not make the deep playoff run fans were hoping for, they have a late first-round pick. While this may not seem like much, the current draft class could become one of the best in NBA history.
