For years the Clips have been sending their young players and prospects to other development league teams to grow. Now with the addition of their own program they can take a more proactive approach to improve their overall bottom line.
Los Angeles has a big summer ahead of them with the decisions of Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, and J.J. Redick all up in the air. A D-League of their own is a great step forward for the organization.
