The Clippers entered the draft holding one first-round selection and two second-round selections, all acquired through previous trades.[1][2] The lottery pick from the Indiana Pacers was conveyed to the team after landing outside its top 4 and 10th-to-30th protected ranges, the 36th pick was originally owned by the Memphis Grizzlies and conveyed to the team after falling outside the 43rd-to-60th protected range, and the 52nd pick was acquired from the Cleveland Cavaliers as an exchange for James Harden. The Clippers had traded their original first- and second-round selections to the Oklahoma City Thunder (as part of the 2019 Paul George trade) and the Houston Rockets (later conveyed to the Brooklyn Nets), respectively.[3]
