The Clippers have tried out 9 rookies, three defenders may become Harden s substitute, and the 18+11 center is also worth paying attention to

Losing to the Nuggets in the first round of tiebreak is very fatal to the Clippers, because the current lineup has very little time to win the championship. Most rotation players are in their thirties or even at the end of their careers. If fresh blood is not added, even if the veterans remain active, the Clippers' situation will only become more and more difficult.

The management also knows this well. At least the local website updated the news, and it only took about a month to eliminate the Clippers, but they have tried out as many as 9 rookies, and the total number of players is also topped the list in the league. In addition to the pure striker, players at every position of the Clippers have conducted corresponding inspections. If the three defenders are selected, they may become James Harden's substitute, and center Johnny Bloom from Auburn University is also worth paying attention to.

If no unexpected situation occurs, James Harden is likely to break out of the contract, but he still renews his contract with the team. But the Clippers obviously need to improve the depth of the backcourt, so among the players in the trial training, as many as 3 are defenders, including Kentucky core player Lamont Butler, who averaged 11.4 points, 4.3 assists and 1.6 steals per game this season. Speaking of the Clippers' arch rival, the Lakers, has also tried out Lamont Butler. The ability to get the attention of the two Los Angeles champions at the same time also proves that the Kentucky defender is very strong. Chucky Hepburn of University of Louisville is a big scene. He was not only elected as the best defensive player in the ACC League, but also during the Crazy Three Championships, he beat Stanford University in the mid-range shot and led the team to the semi-finals of the Championship.

is somewhat similar to the point guard position. It is probably not enough to rely on Zubac alone in the Clippers' center. So Johnny Bloom from Auburn University got the Clippers' trial opportunity. In his senior season, he averaged 18.4 points and 10.8 rebounds per game. Although there is limited room for improvement, Johnny Bloom's combat power can be guaranteed. Another center player in the Clippers' trial training, also from a prestigious school team, is Nate Beatty of the University of Oregon, also a senior. This season, he averages 18.2 points and 7.2 rebounds per game, and has the threat of mid- and long-distance shooting.

In other positions, the Clippers tried out Tamar Bates, the second-place player at the University of Missouri, averaged 13.2 points and 2.6 rebounds per game this season. Tamar Bates' biggest selling point is that his offensive efficiency is that he basically reached the level of the 180 club. In addition, Ethan Almanza from Spain also attracted the attention of the Clippers because she had a professional league experience very early. Simply put, these players are basically in the market after the second round, and they mainly focus on fighting power, so the Clippers' plans can also be seen.
