Brian Seiman is the Clippers' excellent radio play-by-play announcer, and Isaac Lowenkron hosts the pre- and post-game show. Dan Woike of the Orange County Register confirmed on twitter that the Clippers' radio status is "TBD".
Woike clarified with the following:
Clipper games still will be broadcast on @TheBeast980 in short term. But after station changes formats, no reason to stay on there

Clippers had announced a 5-year deal with @TheBeast980 earlier this year. Team now looking for a new partner.

I'm told staying on @TheBeast980 past the format switch is an option, but more of a last resort.
