Austin Rivers plays big minutes as Clippers fall to 76ers
Los Angeles Clippers guard Austin Rivers went 7-of-15 from the field on Tuesday, racking up 20 points, 3 assists and 2 rebounds in 39 minutes of action as the Clippers lost 121-110 to the Philadelphia 76ers.
What It Means:
Rivers led the Clippers in minutes in this one, and he's likely to keep up a big workload while Chris Paul (thumb) is sidelined for what is expected to be another five-to-six weeks. Rivers is averaging 16.8 points, 3.9 assists and 2.2 rebounds in 33.5 minutes per game with Paul on the sidelines this season.
It hasn't been a particularly efficient season for Rivers, evidenced by a -0.7 nERD that ranks only 294th in the NBA and is the fourth-lowest mark among Clippers players.
