The Athletic NBA Daily · Sam Amick on the NBA wide impact of the Clippers punishment · 7 Sep 2026 podcast

To look into this, which is a tough pill to swallow.

And, you know, these are the findings.

I mean, the massive divide between what's in that report and what the Clippers statements have looked like after that are just really hard to process.

I mean, I chatted with our Clippers beat writer, Law Murray, about this the other day.

I think he's going to be writing some of this.

The glasses have full part of it, which is a funny thing to say, given the gravity of the punishment here, is that they have been in some form of this situation before.

They have been dealing with a draft pick deficit since doing the Kawhi Leonard, Paul George deal back in 2019.

You know,

Lawrence Frank gets suspended.

So in terms of operational stuff, Trent Redden is the GM of the Clippers.

And if people don't know Trent, I mean, came from the Cavs, very respected, very smart guy, has all the contacts you need to do this job at the highest level, has been in the running for multiple GM jobs, turned down GM jobs.

You know, the half glass is half full part of this is that Steve Ballmer has funded the

one of, if not the deepest front offices in the NBA.

So they're pretty well equipped to, to continue doing business in that regard.

They have not to do.

right?

Yeah.

I mean, listen, Steve Ballmer,

and this is great for the Clippers, funded one of, if not the deepest front offices in the NBA.

So Trent Redden has done this job.
