There's only one NBA player in this year's class, but these stars -- including the recently retired Russell Westbrook -- should hear their names called in the near future.
Doc Rivers said Monday that he would not break up the Clippers' big three of Chris Paul, Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan during the offseason -- regardless of any trade offers.
Clippers coach Doc Rivers' eyes welled and he became choked up before his team played Portland in Game 5 of their first-round series.
The Clippers will continue the playoffs without Blake Griffin (quad, out all postseason) and Chris Paul (surgery on hand, out indefinitely). Their first-round series with Portland is tied 2-2.
Chris Paul broke a bone in his right hand in the Clippers' Game 4 loss to the Trail Blazers on Monday night and did not return.
Clippers star Blake Griffin still has a tear in his quad but will make his return from injury and suspension on Sunday.
