Gophers freshman guard Cam Christie joined his brother in the NBA, both playing in the same city. Clippers picked him 46th overall. Christie expressed gratitude for his brother's guidance and is excited to bring a competitive mentality to the team.

The wait to be drafted was worth it for Christie and his parents. He became the first Gopher drafted since Daniel Oturu in 2020, joining former teammate Amir Coffey in the Clippers. Christie is determined to work hard and make an impact in the league.
