Paul Pierce (toe) doubtful Wednesday for Clippers
Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul Pierce (toe) is doubtful to play against the Houston Rockets on Wednesday.
He's missed the last three games with his right big toe injury. The Clippers continue to use Luc Mbah a Moute, Jeff Green, Wesley Johnson and Cole Aldrich at their forward spots. Plus, they've also used a lot of three-guard lineups. Pierce should be dropped in most leagues.
Pierce has struggled to a -3.5 nERD this season. He's averaging 5.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game while posting a 47.8 True Shooting Percentage, all of which are career lows. We project Pierce to average 7.4 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.4 assists over the remaining course of the season, while shooting 41.1 percent from the floor..
