 Clippers starting point guard Patrick Beverley underwent a surgical procedure on his right knee Wednesday, league sources tell ESPN.

Although there is no immediate timetable for his return, Beverley is expected to miss a significant amount of time, league sources said.

I'm sure he won't be rushing back to jump into that dumpster fire.

I don't believe Beverly was injured before the trade, so no I don't believe the Rockets traded damaged goods.  However, even if he was, damaged goods are better than no goods, which was the Clippers option if they didn't make the trade.

I feel like Doc makes Bill Simmons look more and more right every day.

Whatever happened to Teodosic? They could really use him now.

Clippers were built like someone's fantasy team. That's a huge blow to that team. Looks like they'll miss the playoffs.

Left foot injury. He's been out for awhile and isn't expected back soon.

It's Austin's time, now.
