Clippers' Austin Rivers: Drops 23 off bench in Friday's loss

Rivers posted 23 points (8-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-6 FT) with three assists and no turnovers over 27 minutes in Friday's 105-97 loss against the Spurs.

Analysis:

Rivers was back to his role off the bench with Chris Paul (thumb) back in action after missing the past month. Despite the move back to a reserve role he was still very effective against a good defensive club. Don't drop Rivers from your fantasy lineup, but you can expect his playing time to be reduced as Paul gets even more comfortable after the long layoff.
