Clippers' Kobe Brown: Healthy to start training camp
Rotowire
Clippers president of basketball operations Lawrence Frank said Wednesday that Brown (ankle) is healthy and ready to go for training camp, Justin Russo of the 'Clip & Roll' podcast reports.
Brown suffered an ankle injury during Summer League action, but as expected, the rookie first-round pick is good to go for training camp. The Missouri product averaged 15.2 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.6 made three-pointers, 1.8 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.0 blocks in 25.5 minutes per game during Summer League. Brown's three-point efficiency certainly stood out in college, and it appears his shot will translate to the next level, which should help him carve out a rotational spot to start 2023-24.

Clippers' Kobe Brown: Final pick in first round
Rotowire
Brown was selected by the Clippers with the 30th overall pick in the 2023 NBA Draft.
A four-year starter at Missouri, Brown averaged 15.8 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.5 threes as a senior en route to All-SEC honors. He's unlikely to be much of a contributor in Year 1, but if he can handle himself defensively, he could work his way into the end of head coach Ty Lue's rotation. During his senior season, Brown shot 45.5 percent from three (3.3 3PA/G) after hitting only 20.6 percent of his attempts as a junior.
