The Clippers open training camp in less than three weeks, yet there remains uncertainty on whether they will have their top draft pick, Yaroslav Korolev, in camp.

Negotiations continue with Korolev's club team, CSKA Moscow, with whom he is under contract for another three years. Terms of a proposed buyout reportedly are between $750,000 and $1 million.

"We're still looking at that situation,'' Elgin Baylor, the Clippers' vice president of basketball operations, said in a statement. "We're in no hurry.''
