@followAdamA Clippers should sign him and Clayton who just got released too.

@FinsXtra When the Dolphins drafted him out of Penn State everyone was hoping he would be the next Micah Parsons, instead we got Jim Parsons!! 🤦‍♂️

@Alex_PorterEnt I know not one person has said this yet as a comp but for someone who covered the Kings in the 2000s, Wagler size, build, and offensive game remind me a lot of Kevin Martin, who was a bucket and played at his own pace with great control and could get to the line at will.

@FishOnFirst First 5,000 fans, so everyone in attendance will get one then, sweet!

[Grant "Money" Mona @Gmona48]

Garret Anderson was Freddie Freeman's favorite player as a kid. Then, he got to know him as an adult

"You always hear, 'Don’t meet your heroes' ... I'm glad I did. Because he was a beautiful man."

@fanatic_clipper Actually his playing style reminds me of a young Chris Webber

[So Cal Sports Scoop @dnett2884]

@UnderdogNBA This is worded to confuse people. It says at least 2 games because Clippers said he won’t go on the upcoming 2 game road trip to evaluate his injury. He is likely out for much longer.

[So Cal Sports Scoop @dnett2884]

@TomerAzarly They said once Clippers get their own arena and out of Crypto Arena, their schedule would be better. Lakers still get the favorable schedule and they still share the arena with the LA Kings. NBA obviously wants the Lakers to excel but this is just getting out of hand.

[Law Murray 💀 @LawMurrayTheNU]

Pacers receive:

- Ivica Zubac
- Kobe Brown

Clippers receive:

- Bennedict Mathurin
- 2029 unprotected Pacers 1st round pick
- Pacers 2026 1st round pick (1-4 protected, 10-30 protected; converts to 2031 1st if not 2026)
- 2028 Dallas 2nd round pick
- Isaiah Jackson

@Alex_PorterEnt I’m hearing that the Clippers are asking for one of the 1st Round picks to be 2026 and the Pacers aren’t budging and could get Gafford for much less since the Mavericks view Lively as their future center.

[So Cal Sports Scoop @dnett2884]

@LawMurrayTheNU This would be Jarred Vanderbilt @JVando as an NBA player if he wasn’t on the Lakers and didn’t get their favorable whistle.

[So Cal Sports Scoop @dnett2884]

@Alex_PorterEnt @Otheryanmurphy @JetsClipper @Wxggxvxllx @CoachD515 The stats they say he puts up each night could easily be replicated and exceeded by a rookie in Niederhauser if you gave him 40 minutes a night. When you have Harden dropping dimes to you all night for free layups, anyone would get you that.

[So Cal Sports Scoop @dnett2884]

@Alex_PorterEnt @Otheryanmurphy @JetsClipper @Wxggxvxllx @CoachD515 If they would just acknowledge Zu for what he actually is which is a very average center who gives his all each night but nothing more than that. He is not someone you can rely on to anchor your team.

@RhettBollinger “As he stepped out of his car at the Tempe Diablo Stadium parking lot, he got his finger stuck in the door as he closed it and will be 6-8 weeks.”

@Farbod_E Live look at Kawhi after the elbow
