4 years agoLos Angeles Clippers shooting guard/small forward Paul George (rest) and point guard Patrick Beverley (hand) have been ruled out for Friday's game versus Houston, the second leg of a back-to-back. The absence of the aforementioned duo, along with Serge Ibaka (back), paves the way for Kawhi Leonard to be the primary offensive focus. Terance Mann and Luke Kennard should also see significant jumps in minutes allotments, while who will perform primary ball-handling duties for L.A. remains to be seen with Rajon Rondo (adductor) questionable. The next opportunity that George and Beverley have to suit up comes Sunday against the Pistons.--Jesse Borek
