Not too long ago, I wrote (in this article) about the Clippers having yet been connected to a point guard for the Summer League, I found out the opposite: Los Angeles received commitment from four-year Penn State guard D.J. Newbill, per Keith Pompey.

Having worked out twice for the Clippers prior to the 2015 NBA Draft, it’s likely Newbill made an impact on the front office and coaching staff, hence the summer league invite (Pompey selected the Clippers over four other teams).

In any post detailing Newbill’s talent, one thing was consistently spoken of: his ability to score the ball. In each year in college, as Newbill’s minutes increased so did his scoring output, averaging 20.7 points per game his senior season (on 45-37-75 shooting splits). Newbill did a solid job filling out the stat sheet elsewhere in 2014-15, averaging 4.7 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.3 steals per game.

Listed as a shooting guard on many websites, Newbill sees himself as a point guard on the next level. “Definitely a lead guard, maybe a combo depending on what situation I end up in,” said Newbill in an interview with DraftExpress at the ASM Pro Day, “but yeah, definitely a point guard.”

Unlike the many wings listed to appear on the Clippers’ summer league roster, it feels unlikely Newbill has a chance to make the 2015-16 roster as the team is littered with under-contract guards (Paul, Stephenson, Crawford, Hudson, Wilcox, Redick), as well as the possibility of Doc Rivers deciding to re-sign son Austin Rivers this summer. Of course, this could all change — Crawford could be released/traded, Hudson waived, and Rivers signing elsewhere — opening the door for Newbill to appear on the training camp roster.

And that’ll depend on how well Newbill performs in the Summer League.

If you’re keeping count, here is a list of all the players who have commiitted to playing with the Clippers’ Summer League team:
