3:53 pm:\u00a0Baldwin\u2019s 10-day contract is official, according to NBA.com\u2019s transactions log<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"12:13 pm: The Clippers intend to sign forward Patrick Baldwin Jr.<\/a> to a 10-day contract, reports Law Murray of The Athletic (via Twitter<\/a>).<\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t sound like the signing will happen immediately. According to Murray, the expectation is that Baldwin will join the team for Monday\u2019s game in Washington. The Clippers play the Raptors in Toronto on Friday night before getting Saturday and Sunday off.<\/p>\n

The 28th overall pick in the 2022 draft, Baldwin has appeared in 93 regular season games for the Warriors, Wizards, and Clippers since making his NBA debut. He finished last season on a two-way contract with L.A. and rejoined the team for training camp before being waived at the end of the preseason.<\/p>\n

So far in 2025\/26, Baldwin has played for the San Diego Clippers, L.A.\u2019s G League affiliate. In 17 NBAGL contests, the forward \u2013 whose height is now listed at 7\u20190\u2033, has averaged 21.1 points, 6.7 rebounds, 3.1 assists, and 1.7 steals in 33.9 minutes per game, with a .546\/.321\/.652 shooting line.<\/p>\n

The Clippers have an open spot on their 15-man roster, so no corresponding move will be necessary to make room for Baldwin. He\u2019ll carry a cap hit of $131,970, which will move the club to within about $1.15MM of its first-apron hard cap.<\/p>\n

As Murray points out (via Twitter<\/a>), carrying a full 15-man roster for 10 days will give the Clippers some extra flexibility with two-way players Kobe Sanders<\/a> and Jordan Miller<\/a>. While a player on a two-way contract is permitted to be active for up to 50 regular season games, a team carrying fewer than 15 players on standard deals can\u2019t use more than 90 combined active games for its two-way players.<\/p>\n

As long as the Clippers have a 15th man under contract, they could have Sanders, Miller, and TyTy Washington Jr.<\/a> active without any of those games being considered an \u201cunder-15\u201d game and counting toward the team\u2019s 90-game limit. Those games would still count toward each player\u2019s individual limit.<\/p>\n

So far this season, the Clippers have used 74 total active games for five two-way players: Sanders, Miller, Washington, Jahmyl Telfort<\/a>, and RayJ Dennis<\/a>. Telfort and Dennis have since been waived.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"3:53 pm:\u00a0Baldwin\u2019s 10-day contract is official, according to NBA.com\u2019s transactions log. 12:13 pm: The Clippers intend to sign…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":543977,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3789],"tags":[7,559,6483,3445,4034,192,4032,251,135,4033,4031,6,16705,7104],"class_list":["post-543976","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-los-angeles-clippers","tag-basketball","tag-clippers","tag-jordan-miller","tag-kobe-sanders","tag-la","tag-la-clippers","tag-laclippers","tag-los-angeles","tag-los-angeles-clippers","tag-losangeles","tag-losangelesclippers","tag-nba","tag-patrick-baldwin-jr","tag-tyty-washington"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/115913747408901305","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/543976","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=543976"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/543976\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/543977"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=543976"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=543976"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=543976"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
