Austin Rivers (ankle) will start on Friday night for the Clippers

Los Angeles Clippers guard Austin Rivers (ankle) will play and start on Friday night versus the Oklahoma City Thunder.

What It Means:

Rivers had promised he would play but his father, head coach Doc Rivers, had suggested it was more 50-50. It looks like the son won out as Austin will start at point guard on Friday.

Our models project Rivers for 14.7 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 3.1 assists for 24.1 FanDuel points against the Thunder.
