Los Angeles Clippers News

Asked second round rookie Kobe Sanders about adjusting to a wing after playing point guard in college, and what it has been like to be on this veteran-laden Clippers roster

Asked Jordan Miller about the third quarter run and if anyone noticed how long Clippers were preventing buckets "Honestly, I wasn't thinking. I was just in the present, honestly. That's it. That's all I could do."

Tyronn Lue made it a point to say that James Harden and Kawhi Leonard are going to get minutes with the second unit Which would decrease all-bench lineups and 10-man rotations So I asked T. Lue about having more all-bench lineups considering the quality of the players they have

Asked Tyronn Lue about who he felt like sparked second unit defense He mentioned Kris Dunn first, for defending Victor Oladipo Then he mentioned Nicolas Batum for defending Tim Frazier And he mentioned Brook Lopez rim protection Also asked about Chris Paul running offense

Kawhi Leonard on Clippers defense: "It went well. These games are always tough. You don't know who you're guarding… just got to keep building for it" Added that "it's still preseason, it's practice" when I asked about areas of improvement for next preseason game Sunday.

Kawhi Leonard on playing in preseason after being unable to suit up before January last season: "It was good. It's always good to see what we've been working on at practice, and then see how you can perform in front of fans with a lot of distractions"

Kawhi Leonard on the Clippers having a lot of “uncs” on this team. “I’ve been an unc for a long time. Since I was 16 years old. It’s nothing new. I started on a team with a lot of veterans. It’s nothing new to me. When I first came in I was with a lot of greats. Tim Duncan, Tony, Manu, Stephen Jackson, TJ Ford, Richard Jefferson. It’s been like that for me.”

someone asked Kawhi Leonard what was in the cup "Hennessy! Nah I'm just playing" 😆

Kawhi Leonard shared some encouragement for the Guangzhou Loong-Lions as they were leaving the arena. “Keep going, y’all. For real. I’ll see y’all next time.”
