Austin Rivers Gets Close To Double-Double In Saturday's Loss
7 years agoLos Angeles Clippers guard Austin Rivers narrowly missed a double-double in Saturday's 134-115 loss to Denver, finishing with 10 points and nine assists in 39 minutes on the floor. Rivers had a tough day from the field, shooting just 4-for-11, so he focused more on playmaking and he did it well, posting a new season-high in assists. He also notched one steal after seeing his 11-game streak with at least one steal end in the last game. Rivers could have a very good night on Monday against his former team the Pelicans, as it's a nice pace-up spot for the Clippers, but following their elimination from playoff contention, it's tough to predict how the rotation will look.
