[June 06, 2023]  The Los Angeles Clippers promoted Trent Redden to general manager on Monday to replace Michael Winger.
 
Mark Hughes also is being promoted to senior vice president/assistant general manager, the team announced.  

 

Redden was hired as assistant general manager in 2017 by Lawrence Frank, executive vice president of basketball operations. Redden now is second in command on the basketball side of the club.

Redden replaces Winger, who departed the organization last month to become president of Monumental Basketball, owner of the Washington Wizards, WNBA's Washington Mystics and G-League team Capital City Go-Go.

"For the past six years, Trent and Mark have been trusted evaluators, dependable leaders, and for me, close confidantes," Frank said in a news release. "Today, we're thrilled to reward them. A lot of executives have backgrounds in strategy or evaluation. Trent brings expertise and agility in both. Since he joined us, Trent has scoured the globe in search of amateur and pro talent while serving as an integral advisor on every major decision and acquisition we've made. He is a respected leader with strong relationships throughout the league."

Winger had been the team's GM since 2017.

Redden previously spent 11 years in the front office of the Cleveland Cavaliers, rising up the ranks from intern. He worked there with current Clippers coach Tyronn Lue.
