2022 NBA Draft: Assessing the Clippers' needs and plans ahead of Thursday

The NBA Finals concluded less than 24 hours ago, which means the 2022 NBA Draft is just around the corner... literally. By this time next week, 60-plus prospects — 58 picks and the smattering of undrafted free agents who get picked up soon after the draft concludes — will have new homes and new opportunities. And while the Los Angeles Clippers may not be drafting from the most exciting spot in the field, a byproduct of their trade for Paul George (perhaps you’ve heard of him) back in 2019, they’ve done plenty of due diligence ahead of making the 43rd overall selection next Thursday night.
