1 / 16Rowan Kavner LOS ANGELES – The Clippers used to be more familiar with the NBA Draft Lottery, which takes place Tuesday night and will determine the draft order as teams who missed the playoffs hope to land the top overall pick.

Here’s a look at how each of the Clippers first came to the NBA.
