About the Agua Caliente Clippers
Where I-10 and I-15 meet in Ontario, California, the Toyota Arena is home to the highest-level basketball in the Inland Empire — the Agua Caliente (AC) Clippers. The G-League affiliate of the NBA's Los Angeles Clippers, the AC Clippers are the development team for the pro team, and on any given night, they showcase a range of talented players. Forward Johnathan Motley, who won the Karl Malone Award while at Baylor as the nation's top power forward, emerged as a team leader, while guards Terance Mann, Tyrone Wallace and Amir Coffey all played well enough to earn extended stints with the L.A. Clippers. The team's penchant for featuring players with NBA pedigree starts with the team's GM, former NBA Slam Dunk Contest champion Dee Brown. In their first two seasons, the AC Clippers became a winning team, challenging for the Pacific Division in the G-League's Western Conference. The 225,000-square-foot and nearly 11,000-capacity Toyota Arena boasts 36 total luxury suites on two levels, and floor-level season tickets start at under $900 per seat. Single-game tickets are always available, and group tickets can come with an elevated fan experience — like a pregame shootaround or postgame free throws on the court.
Agua Caliente Clippers Background
Since the 2017-18 season, the Agua Caliente Clippers have been the NBA's Los Angeles Clippers sole affiliate in the NBA's developmental G-League. After the team's previous arrangement with the Bakersfield Jam ended in 2014, L.A. Clippers Head Coach Doc Rivers sought to build a new Southern California–based affiliate to help breed NBA talent, and the Agua Caliente Clippers were born. Their name comes from the Agua Caliente band of Cahuilla Indians, native to the surrounding area in Southern California, and the tribe's Palm Springs area casinos are the team's title sponsor. The team's colors are red, blue, and silver and the mascot is the popular Kid Condor. The Toyota Arena is a multiuse facility in Ontario that also hosts hockey, arena soccer, concerts, and more.
So fun to be here with the Ontario Clippers. It's the NBA G league. These are NBA players and we are so close to these guys. The usher's put everyone closer to the game... I go place by myself so they put me on the floor like two or feet from the three point line... Wow amazing and the cheer squad is hyped out there throwing all kinds of stuff in the stands. Cool place, cool team.
The game was phenomenal! I had floor seats, I do feel that a bit more control should had been taken with the empty seats and checking of who sits where. I purchased three seats and only used two the third was taken by a family that made their way to the floor and took empty seats. Staff was not checking tickets. Other than the minor issue everyone was kind and the game was a fun experience.
Parking attendants, security, inside arena workers made for a very memorable time on Monday.
Not ok with a few things; the $10 parking, claiming Doordash would be the only mode to order food (untrue), I walked right up & ordered an additional drink, no giftshop (the place needs a small team of hawkers selling Ontario novelties & apparel. The staff was very nice & welcoming, big ups there.
T Food was great (tacos), got to interact briefly with a player who was very friendly and respectful (Diabate). Action was great, annou xera and entertainment was fun. Definitely got my money's worth!
We had an great time, the game was action packed, can’t wait for the next one.
It was a great “last minute” experience. I had so much fun watching new talent.
We had a great time at the game. Atmosphere was great.
I just had a marvelous occasion. Security, ushers, parking attendants were all very resourceful.
I had a very outstanding time. Arena crew had been courteous. Facility was clean. It was a terrific time to have experienced earlier this week.
