The rookie, a first-round pick after leading Missouri to its first NCAA Tournament victory in 13 seasons, is excited for next week’s playoff series with Dallas
The Clippers’ Kobe Brown scores on a layup past Phoenix’s Royce O’Neale, right, during the first half Wednesday, April 10, 2024, at Crypto.com Arena. Clippers rookie Kobe Brown, like the rest of his teammates, naturally is excited for the playoffs to begin. But unlike most of his better-known teammates, the anticipation is coming from a whole different place.
Brown and his family never made that trek in his four seasons at Missouri, and any NBA games he saw were from afar. This time, the playoffs are at his home arena. “I’m really excited to see what it’s like,” Brown said. “We already got the playoff scouting report or whatever it is. Big packet that I’ve never had before. It’s going to be fun, exciting … I want to see how far we go. Hopefully, we can win it all. It will be fun.”
Lue’s excitement increased as he stepped on the court in Game 4 of that series across from former Jazz great and Hall of Famer John Stockton, a point guard like himself. Brown, who has averaged 8.3 minutes in his first season, could see more court time in Sunday’s regular-season finale against the Houston Rockets.
