The LA Clippers 1996–97 relied on Loy Vaught as their primary scorer and rebounder, while Brent Barry emerged as a versatile contributor with playmaking, scoring, and perimeter shooting. Lamond Murray added consistent secondary offense, and Rodney Rogers strengthened the frontcourt with scoring and rebounding. The statistics indicate a balanced attack with multiple offensive contributors, solid rebounding, and an emphasis on versatile forwards rather than a dominant interior presence.
