Los Angeles Clippers

Bledsoe was subsequently selected with the 18th overall pick in the 2010 NBA draft by the Oklahoma City Thunder but was later traded to the Los Angeles Clippers in 2010. While his first season with the club he averaged 6.7 points and 3.6 assists and started 25 games for the team and was named to the NBA All-Rookie Second Team. He played only an average of 11 minutes per game, with only one start, and his stats dropped in his second season with the club. After three seasons with the club, he ended and left for Phoenix Suns in 2013.

He was traded to the Phoenix Suns alongside teammate Caron Butler on 10 July 2013. He made his club debut in a match against Portland Trail Blazers, he helped his team by getting 22 points, 6 rebounds, and 7 assists in a 104-91 victory.

Bledsoe also got his career first double-double with the Suns by scoring 16 points, grabbing 11 rebounds, and putting up 7 assists in a blowout 117-90 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on December 23, 2013. He scored 30 points, setting a new NBA career high, in a 109-93 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers on 4 April 2014.
