Clippers to hold training camp at UC Irvine
Doc Rivers coaches the Clippers against the Indiana Pacers at Staples Center last December.
The Clippers are planning to hold training camp at UC Irvine beginning Sept. 26.
Two years ago, the Clippers held their camp in San Diego, and last year they held it in Las Vegas. Coach Doc Rivers said last November that he had no problem returning to Sin City for training camp in 2015 despite Blake Griffin being charged with one count of misdemeanor battery after an incident there during the 2014 preseason. The charges were later dropped.
The Clippers’ preseason opener is set for Oct. 2 at Staples Center against the Denver Nuggets. They are scheduled to play six preseason games, including one in Canada and two in China, before opening the regular season against the Sacramento Kings on Oct. 28.
