The Clippers’ 128-point total broke the single-game Summer League scoring record.
Pedulla Made His NBA Debut Last Season
Pedulla signed a two-way contract with the Clippers in February before making his NBA debut against the Timberwolves on March 11. The 23-year-old played in seven NBA games and spent the majority of the season in the G League.
Pedulla shined in the G League with the San Diego Clippers last season and was named the 2025-26 Kia NBA G League Rookie of the Year in April.
Before signing with the Clippers, Pedulla played his senior collegiate season at Ole Miss. He averaged 15.4 points, 3.5 rebounds and 3.8 assists in 32.8 minutes while starting all 36 games he played for the Rebels during the 2024-25 season.
Pedulla ultimately went undrafted in 2025 but is showing he has the potential to be a star for the Clippers.
