Ty Lue talks a lot about the next man up mentality. The Clippers have never been truly whole in his tenure as head coach, and the injuries and absences have really piled up in the last month, but thats no excuse not to go out and perform. The next player or coach on the bench or off the 10-day scrap heap simply has to fill in and get the job done. Over the weekend, that next man up principle extended itself to another branch of the Clippers organization: the broadcast team. Jim Jackson and Mike Fratello were both unavailable for Saturdays contest against Memphis. That meant Kristina Pink, who normally does sideline reporting for the team, was bumped to the analyst chair. Prior to the game, Pink was hoping the temporary change would go unnoticed, but Lue felt compelled to let everyone know during his pregame media availability Robert Covington Jersey. Pink was nervous, and deservedly so. Although shes a veteran on sideline for the Clippers and NFL games, and she has hosted pregame and postgame shows, she said this was her first time on the call in-game. She got confirmation Friday that the job was hers, and Lue told her that filling in was right in line with what everyone else on the Clippers has had to do during the recent omicron outbreak. Brian Shaw stepped into the head coaching job; Dahntay Jones, a player development coach, was acting defensive coordinator for a spell; Amir Coffey has had to start at shooting guard. Its next man up, or in this case, next woman up.

She shared fun anecdotes about the players, like Marcus Morris Sr. switching to a pescatarian diet in recent weeks to slim down, or Ivica Zubac only allowing his wife to cut his hair after he grew it out during quarantine. Should the opportunity present itself again, the Clippers know they have a game contributor on the sideline to sit in alongside Brian Sieman. And Pink was back at her full-time gig on Sunday, stepping on the court to report against the Hawks and unfortunately paying the price for an ice water bath that Terance Mann and Reggie Jackson delivered to Amir Coffey https://www.lacprostore.com/Milos_Teodosic_Jersey-8.
