As the 2017-18 NBA season approaches, the Los Angeles Clippers will begin a new era without Chris Paul. After trading for Paul in 2011, the franchise had high hopes of winning their first championship, but never advanced past the Western Conference semifinals. To begin the offseason, the nine-time All-Star was traded to the Houston Rockets where the Clippers received numerous role players and prospects.

With the Clippers re-signing Blake Griffin and signing Danilo Gallanari in free agency, it remains to be seen how competitive they can be as numerous West teams have improved. As the Clippers are reportedly facing the Los Angeles Lakers to begin the new season, their home schedule has reportedly been leaked on Ticketmaster according to Twitter via Lucas Hann of Clips Nation:

While the NBA announced season openers and Christmas Day games earlier, it is important to note they have not officially released the full regular season schedule for all 30 teams.

With so many new faces on the roster, it will be interesting to see how quickly the Clippers can gel under head coach Doc Rivers. Rivers, who was the President of Basketball Operations since his arrival, recently left the role to focus on coaching this upcoming season.
