The 46-year-old Bowen, who played 13 seasons in the NBA, winning three championships, and earning eight All-Defensive selections, had been working as an ESPN analyst for the last several years. It’s yet another shake-up for the Clippers this offseason, and it will be interesting to see how Bowen develops chemistry with legendary Clippers play-by-play announcer Ralph Lawler.
