The Los Angeles Clippers selected David Michineau with the No. 39 pick in the 2016 NBA Draft.

Los Angeles reportedly acquired the pick in a trade with the New Orleans Pelicans that saw the Clippers send the No. 33 selection for picks No. 39 and No. 40.

Michineau is a vicious on-ball defender, who is capable of shutting down opposing point guards with his speed and quickness.

At present, Michineau is only a defensive-minded player, and will need to develop some sort of offensive game to exceed in the NBA.

The French guard has shown promise attacking the rim, but will need to add to his skill set at the next level.
