Center Brooke Lopez, who joined the Clippers this summer, reviewed his experience with the Bucks in an interview. "I'm obviously proud to win the championship, but I'm very grateful to all the players, coaching staff, physical therapists and physical fitness experts who have helped me succeed. We have built a special bond off the basketball court, and this relationship will never go away, and I'm very grateful to them." In seven seasons with the Bucks, Lopez averaged 13 points, 5.2 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 2.1 blocks, shooting 48.7% from the field and 35.7% from three-pointers in seven seasons. For the new big man who joined the Clippers, his motivation is to win the game.

"Money is good, but this is not the goal I pursue. I like playing basketball and love basketball. This has been like this since I was a child. I watched my brothers grow up playing basketball and have been immersed in it. I also love victory, just want to continue to win. I tasted the taste of victory in Milwaukee, and everyone here is working hard for victory, so I am very suitable here." said Lopez.

Grand Lopez grew up in North Hollywood and witnessed the Clippers' journey from being overlooked to becoming a highly respected team in the league. "It's really crazy and cool to see them. Seeing their rise, as a Californian, I grew up in North Hollywood, and it was completely different back then. It's amazing to see the Clippers develop now, and I'm so happy to be one of them and hope to help them take it to the next level," said Big Lopez.

Grand Lopez will serve as a substitute for Zubac in the new season. This summer, he signed a two-year, $18 million contract with the Clippers, with the second year with a team option.
