Just got Eric Gordon and are making a play for Westbrook. Will be interesting if Preston survives the next 30 minutes as a Clipper (or is packaged as a throw in as trades get finalized) - certainly heading to G-league as the playoff push gets going if he stays with the organization.. Now they’ve traded away Reggie Jackson, so one PG in, one out. Great day to be JP. Wall gone. Jackson gone. Bones Hyland in. JP has to be getting some meaningful minutes moving forward now. Think he's still third on the depth chart. Mann has been starting, so Jackson's minutes likely go to Bones. Sadly, not sure this helps Preston as it just adds another couple of guards to the rotation.

Feels like we're gonna see a lot of EG/PG/KL line-ups, with everyone else filling out around. They've lost 10 of 13, so maybe we'll see more line-up shifts. JP could def make some plays for all these shooters.

Hits his only FG attempt. Sounds like Paul George is trying to get his buddy Russell Westbrook to return to LA and play for the Clippers.

There's been PG injuries in front of him and players traded away, only to see Jason still sitting the bench. He seems to have proven he can play at a high level in the G League, so maybe another NBA team will give him a shot or he can go overseas and make a fine living. Obviously, I want to see him get the time and opportunity now with the Clippers, I just don't see it happening.

So much of their offense runs through Kawhi and Paul George that having a PG whose strengths are on-the-ball isn't ideal.

He almost had a double - double against most of the Cavs starters in that blowout. He shot well and didn’t really make dumb mistakes. For someone that you spent a very early second round pick on, I think it’ll be time to start getting a bigger role. JP tears up the G league when they send him down and then when he’s on the big stage, he typically scores when he’s in. I guess I’ll never be a GM.

Preston has a lot of talent and dribbles and passes at an NBA level. He's also a guy who still needs to develop a lot and he'll be 24 before the next NBA season. If a team wants to spend a year or two getting a guard to improve a really deficient jumper and learn to create his own shot they'll probably do it with a 19-year-old. Brutal and maybe even unfair but true.

So, unfortunately, I don't expect him to get any quality time the rest of the season. The difference between G league and the NBA is like the difference between summer league and the regular season - it's night and day -- but a good training ground. The Clippers aren't giving up on him, they're just too deep for him to.break in, and that's before they add a PG via the buyout route. I'm still gonna hold on to my Preston jersey.

He's proven to be a very solid player even in a small sample size, I think someone would trade for him.

CAVS have about 46 PG's at the moment, but Rubio and Neto are older rotation guys, they could use a young true PG to come in and create shots for Mitchell, Garland when one of them is on the bench. Probably wont happen, as they're entering their young core + vets stage of the rebuild, but we can hope.

I watch the ESPN app for TV info. If there's TV, usually it will say on their score page what channel is carrying it. I've caught a few of their games this year, I think they were all on ESPN+.
