Terance Mann on being an offense-creator: “Working on trying to find a healthy balance between the new step, offense and defensive minded. I still want to be one of the team’s best defenders and help on offense.” – 1:11 AM

Inland Empire fans are getting a show: Anthony Edwards got rookie Keon Johnson on a pump fake near the three-point arc and elevated for a huge dunk. Then T-Mann set up Keon Johnson for a wild transition dunk. – 11:34 PM

Jay Scrubb ends first quarter with a steal and slam to give Clippers a 30-27 lead. Terance Mann leads all scorers with 10 points, making a couple 3s. – 11:08 PM

Ty Lue has said he’ll stagger either Bledsoe or Reggie’s minutes to ensure the 2nd unit has a lead guard. This Bled-Mann-Kennard-Batum-Zu Clippers lineup, with the exception of Zubac, is a preview of how Bledsoe could look running with this group. – 10:53 PM
Law Murray @LawMurrayTheNU
One thing is for sure, Terance Mann will challenge your jump shot.
Anthony Edwards thought he had a side step 3, but Mann got a hand up and blocked it, leading to a run out layup.
Eric Bledsoe has 4 dimes to take the preseason lead from Isaiah Hartenstein, btw…

More on this storyline
Bobby Marks: The Clippers were facing a big tax hit on a new Mann contract in 2022-23 (was likely going to be a restricted FA). The contract now starts in 2023-24 ($1.9M team option was exercised) and gives Mann $22M in guaranteed money. A win for both sides. -via Twitter @BobbyMarks42 / October 12, 2021
“It is with tremendous honor and pride that I sign this extension with the Clippers,” Mann told The Undefeated in a statement. “The faith and commitment in my development and contribution thus far will provide me the motivation I need as I continue to be a pivotal part of our championship run. I want to thank the front office for this opportunity to remain a part of the Clipper Nation. I would also like to thank my coaches and teammates for believing me and allowing me to grow both on and off the court.” -via ESPN / October 12, 2021
