Which three players should Los Angeles Clippers fans keep an eye out for in NBA preseason action?

Doc Rivers and the Los Angeles Clippers are heading into a new season and a new era of basketball. After trading Chris Paul and Jamal Crawford this past offseason, the Clippers are set to begin the season with Blake Griffin and DeAndre Jordan as the two remaining pieces of the core from last season.

Heading into preseason action, the Clippers are hoping to see development from a few of their young players. Rivers will likely have to rely on young pieces to shore up the bench, which makes the preseason even more intriguing to keep an eye on for the Clippers and their fans.

L.A. is not going into a rebuilding process, no matter what the media or fans think. They have simply re-tooled with a new identity moving forward. Trading Paul to the Houston Rockets was a tough move to make, but they were able to bring in quite a few pieces in the deal that will be keys moving forward.

If Griffin is able to stay healthy, there are quite a few reasons to believe that the Clippers will be a playoff team once again. They have surrounded him with scoring and potential, which bodes well for their future, as well as their present.

With all of that being said, which three players should fans keep an eye on in particular during the Clippers’ preseason schedule?
