The Los Angeles Clippers were unable to connect another deep postseason run.
Even the star-studded lineup featuring James Harden and Kawi Leonard were unable to win the 2025 NBA Championship along with talented head coach Tyrone Lou.
In fact, the Clippers were sent home in the opening round of the playoffs following a 4-3 series loss with the Denver Nuggets.
As a result, the Clippers’ front office was locked in, and numerous changes to the roster were made ahead of the 2025-26 NBA season.
The Clippers’ offseason was headlined by adding Bradley Beal to the roster. Beale agreed to a deal with the Clippers after completing the contract purchase with the Phoenix Suns.
Additionally, the Clippers also acquired John Collins in a massive trade with the Utah Jazz, further strengthening their starting lineup.
That being said, there are all the additions the Clippers made on their roster before the start of the 2025-26 NBA season.
- Bradley Beale (signs two-year contract)
- John Collins (trading from Utah Jazz)
- Brook Lopez (signed 2-year contract)
- Chris Paul (signs one-year contract)
- Tyty Washington (signs one-year contract)
- James Harden (re-signed 2-year contract)
- Nicholas Batam (re-signed two-year contract)
With the addition of Beal and Chris Paul, Clippers’ 2025-26 lineup is expected to be well-balanced. If the Clippers roster stays healthy, they could ultimately lift the glorious Larry O’Brien Trophy.
To ensure the roster is balanced, the Clippers front office parted ways with a few players before the new season.
The most notable exit was the Norman Powell exit, which was exchanged for the Miami Heat. The deal shocked Powell and many fans around the world.
With that in mind, here are all the players who have started off the Clippers roster.
- Norman Powell (trading with Miami Heat)
- Drew Eubanks (abandoned)
- Amir Coffey (remained as a free agent)
The Clippers finished last season with a 50-32 record. On paper, the team’s roster is far better than last year’s roster, but only time will tell if the Clippers can secure a top four species in the West.
