Teams can have up to 21 players on the offseason roster (must come down to maximums of 15 standard contracts and 3 two-way contracts by Monday Week 1)

I'm told that Cam Christie's guarantee date with the LA Clippers has been pushed from today to October 15. Was originally end of June.

🆕 @theathletic.com Before Keaton Wagler's summer league began, we discussed his place in a talented guard draft class. But I learned the most about why confidence in Wagler isn't coming from just the LA Clippers and Wagler himself. www.nytimes.com/athletic/744...

Los Angeles Lakers roster is full with standard contracts and two-way contracts... for now. something might have to give

Bronny James and Ziaire Williams reunited… for now…

Walker Kessler averaged 14.4 points, 10.8 rebounds, 1.4 steals, 1.8 blocks, and 1.2 3s last season through five games And then he got season-ending shoulder surgery Asked Kessler about how he is feeling and how he can build on the start of last season "The heart grows fond in absence"

Sandro Mamukelashvili has started 28 games in his NBA career. Asked him about what it will take to meet expectations as a possible starter "I don't know how it's all gonna play out. But I just think throughout my five years in the league, I've matured enough, I understand how to play this game"

Asked Austin Reaves what reinforced his desire to remain with the Lakers "I just think it's the organization, the coaching staff, obviously my relationship with the guys on the team last year and then Luka, he's one of my best friends on this planet. I talk to him almost every single day"

Asked Los Angeles Lakers free agent signing Collin Sexton about his strong efficiency and low-turnover style in his 8-year career (47.2% FGs, 38.9% 3s, 2.3 turnovers in 29.0 minutes) "I feel that was something that was a huge knock on me coming into the league"

Asked Baba Miller about Keaton Wagler's 3rd quarter: "It was great. I feel like no one really panicked after last game. It was a rough game for all of us. And just seeing him today play like he's played the whole year has been great. But I feel that we all kind of expected it."

Asked Baba Miller about what he is focusing on when it comes to his shooting: "Just consistency. Just kind of the flow... I got pretty good touch. It's just kind of finding that rhythm where I can have consistent mechanics where it doesn't change from shot to shot and just live with the results"

Asked Jay Larranaga about what, if anything, he did to help free up Keaton Wagler Jay did not see it that way. He shared that he shared a text from his wife with the team after Thursday's game that said "stay deaf to the negativity and focus on the goal"

The LA Clippers are 1-1 in Summer League Final score: Clippers 104, Jazz 82 Nick Martinelli: 14 points, 7/11 FGs, 6 rebounds, 1 steal FGs: LAC 35/81, 43.%; UTA 27/63, 42.9% Big possession battle game for Clippers: 15-8 offensive rebound advantage, 14-11 opp. turnover advantage

Keaton Wagler has seven fouls He decided to dish out what was absorbed Thursday night lol Clippers lead Jazz 91-67, 4:35 left to play

Clippers lead 89-64 with 5:58 left They look like practice and two days off The Jazz look like Planet Hollywood

Keaton Wagler: 18 of his game-high 23 points in third quarter Clippers lead 82-56 through three quarters

there might be some tweet deleting tonight lol, RE: KW

Flagrant 1 on Jonas Aidoo

Keaton Wagler just drew his second offensive foul from a big. The second one is under review for a flagrant foul Nick Martinelli was ready to react accordingly lol

13-0 LAC run 53-44 LAC lead And Keaton Wagler has made a couple shots 🤷🏾‍♂️

Jahmyl Telfort is starting second half in place of Norchad Omier (on bench) Tamar Bates is starting in place of Ace Bailey (also on bench)

Yanic Konan Niederhäuser is here And he's wearing two shoes

Clippers lead Jazz 40-38 at halftime That's despite Clippers shooting a woeful 35% FGs (Jazz: 37.8%), with Wagler/Sanders/Christie at 3/21 FGs Baba Miller: 9 points, 3/4 FGs, 1/1 3s Clippers outscoring Jazz 10-6 off turnovers

12-point Clippers lead GONE

Clippers pick-and-roll offense remains in hell

Nick Martinelli, and I've said this before, hoops like he expects to score 20 when he's out there He's outscoring the Jazz bench by himself 9-7 Clippers lead 23-16 with 7:56 left in first half

That was a first quarter with two Nick Martinelli dunks. Gotta ask him the last time that happened. Clippers lead Jazz 19-13 Norchad Omier: 3 points, 4 rebounds, 1 steal Clippers outscoring Jazz 8-2 off turnovers

Jahmyl Telfort is in. He was one of two Clippers who didn't get to play Thursday

Clippers went on an 8-0 run, lead 17-11 with 2:10 left in 1st quarter Wagler and Pedulla have as many assists (4) as the entire Jazz team

Clippers have 5 points in 4:07 So that's how things are going early

Darryn Peterson turned that corner and turned the lights out my goodness #WhenInDoubtDunk

The LA Clippers are not changing the starting lineup from Thursday: Wagler, Christie, Sanders, Miller, Omier Jazz are starting Darryn Peterson, Ace Bailey, Cody Williams, Jonas Aidoo, Orlando Robinson

Asked Baba Miller about Keaton Wagler ahead of tonight's Clippers-Jazz game "He's locked in. Just trying to get better every day. But he has the sense of just -- he's gonna be good. Like, he's an amazing player, and he knows that."
