Sean Pedulla, a former Ole Miss guard, will make his NBA debut Friday night with the Los Angeles Clippers. The game against the San Antonio Spurs is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. and will be broadcast on ESPN.

Pedulla signed a two-way contract with the Clippers in February after a successful stint with the G League’s San Diego Clippers. He previously played for the Rip City Remix, Portland’s G League affiliate, where he averaged 23.5 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 6.9 assists over 22 games. Pedulla recorded five double-doubles and scored 30 or more points in seven contests, including a season-high 46 points in early February.

At Ole Miss, Pedulla helped lead the Rebels to a 2024-25 Sweet 16 appearance, matching the program’s best NCAA tournament run. He averaged 15.4 points per game and earned all-SEC honors. He made 87 three-pointers, ranking eighth in school history, and collected 68 steals, fifth in school history.

Pedulla’s professional career began with an invite to the Portland Trailblazers’ Summer League team. He later secured a roster spot with their G League affiliate, Rip City Remix. Since signing with the Clippers, he has appeared in three G League games, scoring 20 or more points each time.

He becomes the 12th former Ole Miss player to appear in an NBA game and the third this season, according to Ole Miss athletics. For more updates, follow Ole Miss men’s basketball on X at @OleMissMBB, on Facebook, and on Instagram at olemissmbb.
