Press Release: L.A. Clippers And Mayor Garcetti Celebrate The Opening Of The First Clippers Community Court

LOS ANGELES – Mayor Eric Garcetti and the L.A. Clippers today celebrated the opening of the first Clippers Community Court — a project to renovate nearly 350 public basketball courts across the City over the next three years. The project was made possible by a generous donation to the Department of Recreation and Parks Foundation from the L.A. Clippers and Steve and Connie Ballmer.

Mayor Garcetti was joined by Clippers President of Business Operations Gillian Zucker, Clippers guard Lou Williams, Clippers forward Luc Mbah a Moute, Councilmember Gil Cedillo, Department of Recreation and Parks General Manager Michael Shull, and more than 50 young basketball players at the ribbon-cutting event at Normandie Recreation Center, which unveiled three renovated courts.
