Doc Rivers has refrained from playing 34-year old small forward Alan Anderson consistently this season, and understandably so. It is still relatively early in the season, and the whole LA Clippers roster is physically healthy (for the most part). It makes sense for Doc to save some of the Clippers’ depth for later in the season and establish a strong foundation of continuity to begin with, but another wise decision would be to start breaking in Alan Anderson. At the very least, to give the man some minutes in garbage time.
The 6’6″ small forward came into the league in 2005, playing for the Charlotte Bobcats.
