The 2010–11 Los Angeles Clippers season was the 41st season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA), and the 27th in Los Angeles.

This was Blake Griffin's first year in the league. He was named an All-Star, becoming the first rookie to do so since Yao Ming in 2003. Despite the team's mediocre record, Griffin was named Rookie of the Year at season's end.

On February 24, 2011, the Clippers traded away Baron Davis and their first-round pick to the Cleveland Cavaliers for fellow point guard Mo Williams and forward Jamario Moon, in a move to clear cap space in advance of free agency. The pick, which would have been the 8th based on record, reached #1 overall in the Lottery after starting at just 2.8% odds. Cleveland selected future 8x All-Star Kyrie Irving with the Clippers selection.

As of 2025, this was the last time the Clippers finished with a losing season.

Key dates

  • June 24 – The 2010 NBA draft was held in New York City.
