Rookie Diamond Stone is a player to watch with the Clippers this season.

He has his own style of gritty play.

Unlike Jordan, he can make jump shots consistently to coincide with his defense. Stone adds depth to the center position, which serves the Clippers well.

All four of them will be played in the rotation.

Stone fits right into the Clippers team because he has that determined attitude and desire to play hard and win. He gives everything be has every game, leaving it all on the court.

Also, he will be mentored by Deandre Jordan.
