The LA Clippers are a veteran-heavy team. They have no interest in lottery picks or building a young core.
Their Summer League players will be fighting for a bench role. Players who do well could also raise their stock and profiles. But their improved stock could result in them becoming trade pieces in a deal for James Harden.
The Clippers are massive long shots to win the Summer League. LA is listed at 50/1 to win the championship.

LA Clippers' Summer League players
The Clippers have a rookie-heavy roster. There are a few players who could find their way into the back half of the team's rotation.
Most of LA’s roster is compromised of players with no gurantees of an NBA future. They will be fighting tooth and nail to earn an NBA opportunity.
Clippers' Summer League coaches
Assistant coach Dahntay Jones will coach the Clippers. Jones played in the NBA for 10 seasons until 2013.
Clippers Schedule
The Clippers have a couple of tough outings. The Utah Jazz figure to be their toughest matchup with a lot of first-round draft picks. The Sacramento Kings would also be a tough out. LA is not likely to make the semifinals, but a 3-1 finish could get them there as a suprise.
What to watch-for
The Clippers first-round draft pick from last month will be the main name to watch. Kobe Brown, a swingman out of Missouri who was the No. 30 pick, will attempt to show off his scoring skills. If he proves his worth and develops quickly, Brown could be a piece of the Clippers' deep rotation this season.
Jordan Miller, a small forward who helped Miami to the Final Four, was a second-round pick (No. 48) this year. He is a versatile scorer with a deep skillset.
