At least two of the players on the Clippers' roster for Tuesday's game will be returning to Frontwave Arena to play for their NBA G League affiliate, the San Diego Clippers — small forwards Trentyn Flowers and Jordan Miller, who are both on two-way contracts, which limit them to being active for 50 games with the NBA Clippers.
The 19-year-old Flowers won't participate in training camp while recovering from left wrist surgery. Flowers signed with the Clippers as an undrafted rookie after playing last season for the Adelaide 36ers of Australia's National Basketball League. Miller averaged 1.6 points in eight games for the Clippers last season after being selected in the second round of the 2023 NBA draft after helping lead Miami to its first Final Four. Miller's coach with the Hurricanes was Jim Larrañaga, the father of Clippers' assistant coach Jay Larrañaga.
