Maalik Wayns 

Post#1 » by mttwlsn16 » Fri Mar 8, 2013 4:40 pm

Jamal Crawford's sore left ankle and Eric Bledsoe's sore left calf have forced the Los Angeles Clippers to bring in another guard. Crawford has missed some games due to the ankle, while Bledsoe can't practice.

According to several reports, the Clippers signed Maalik Wayns to a 10-day contract. Wayns began the season with the Philadelphia 76ers, but was waived in January before his contract became guaranteed.

The Clippers currently have an open roster spot, so no current player had to be released to open a spot for Wayns.


Championship!

Man, what is this crappy signing?

Dude averaged more turnovers than assists in 22 minutes in the D-League!

Why not bring back Mike Taylor? Or give Sean Singletary or Andre Barrett, or Patrick Beverley.

Well we needed another PG and it's only a 10 day contract. Let's see what he can do.
I've been an LA Clipper fan since 1998 and that will never change. I hate our new logo and jerseys!

He doesn't appear to be that TO prone in this game tonight vs Detroit. :)

Clippers ready to take off for San Antonio. Rookie Maalik Wayns just told he was being signed for rest of season. All smiles.

Kid has potential to be decent for us. Hope he can stick and contribute in these remaining games.

Return to Los Angeles Clippers
