The Los Angeles Clippers don't have a selection in Thursday's NBA draft, but they are looking to buy a pick in the second round, according to the L.A. Times' Broderick Turner.

The organization, led by president and head coach Doc Rivers, has been calling teams who have second-round picks in the 35-50 range, sources told Turner.

A significant chance exists the team could look much different next season, and one report this week said the Clippers were shopping center DeAndre Jordan.
