The Clippers' Intuit Dome will have a 'wall of people' under both baskets, with a standing section of fans to create homecourt advantage.
Tony Anderson, Mike Sykes and Charles Curtis discuss the large number of players in the NBA they could picture winning an MVP award come season's end.LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles Clippers are a little more than a year into building an arena they can truly call home – Intuit Dome.
After breaking ground in September 2021, the team looks to play in the 18,000-seat arena in Inglewood for the 2024-25 season. AECOM and Hunt and Turner are working as a joint venture in serving as construction manager of the $2 billion facility that the team has touted as"climate positive." The Clippers, with partner Aspiration, have plans for the arena to be fully electric through batteries and solar power with enough on-site energy storage to power a basketball game.
Clippers president of business operations, Gillian Zucker, sat down with USA TODAY to provide an update on the construction progress, what unique arena features will give the team homecourt advantage and how team owner Steve Ballmer chose the seats for Intuit Dome.“When you look at how much progress has been made out there, it seems like it should’ve been much longer. It’s moving along so well. You can walk on some of the concourse levels. You can go into areas where the clubs are going to be.
Q: I understand Footprint Center renovations in Phoenix was an influence on the arena? So what things did you pick up from those renovations and are applying to this?“I think they do a beautiful job of really thinking about the fans at Footprint Center with a lot of the renovations there. We also saw really leading into some of the newer technology in terms of the boards and things they can do to totally change the experience.
