The Los Angeles Clippers organization announced the relocation and rebranding of their G League team to Oceanside, California, where they will adopt the San Diego Clippers name for the 2024-25 season. This move marks a return to the team’s historical roots, aligning with their NBA counterpart’s transition to the Intuit Dome in Inglewood.
The San Diego Clippers will host their games at the newly constructed Frontwave Arena, signifying a new chapter for the team and its connection to the San Diego sports community.
“It’s a sort of homecoming for the Clippers organization, as the NBA team played in San Diego from 1978-84. Their current G League franchise, named the Ontario Clippers, will complete its season in Ontario, Calif. The NBAGL club was previously named the Agua Caliente Clippers of Ontario.”
