Del Negro was recently fired by the Chicago Bulls and replaced by Boston Celtics assistant coach Tom Thibodeau. He was one of two finalists for the spot, along with Dwane Casey, an assistant coach for the Dallas Mavericks.
Del Negro is set to replace Kim Hughes, who served as the Clippers' interim coach after Mike Dunleavy was shown the door during the 2009-2010 season.
ESPN Los Angeles has further confirmation here.
