The Clippers are singularly focused on their own playoff run, but the coaching carousel moves along, and that means their staff could potentially be poached for other opportunities.
Right now, the belle of the ball is Chauncey Billups, a first-year Clippers assistant who was a broadcaster for years before taking his seat on the bench. Billups will reportedly be interviewing for the Portland Trail Blazers head coaching job this week, per Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, along with Mike D’Antoni and Becky Hammon, who are currently assistants with the Nets and the Spurs, respectively.
Billups may be a neophyte as a coach, but he is well-respected among current players.
