Clippers' Austin Rivers comes up big in Game 6 start
Los Angeles Clippers guard Austin Rivers came through in his start against the Utah Jazz on Friday, scoring 13 points with 4 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 block and 3 3-pointers in 35 minutes.
Rivers hit two big three-pointers down the stretch in the fourth quarter to help seal the victory for the Clippers and force a Game 7. After playing 35 minutes and getting praise from his coach/father after the game, we can likely pencil in Rivers as the Clippers' Game 7 starter.
In two playoff games, Rivers is averaging 7.5 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.0 assists over 26.0 minutes per game. He has a .464 playoff effective field goal percentage in those two games.
