During the Los Angeles Clippers’ recent scrimmages in China, Chris Paul suffered a fractured finger and Austin Rivers had five teeth knocked out after catching an accidental elbow from Branden Dawson. Neither injury was serious enough to sideline either player for long, but it looks as though they’ll both be making their return already in the Clippers’ next preseason game against the Charlotte Hornets at 8:00 AM ET on October 14.
As Rowan Kavner of Clippers.com reported, Doc Rivers has said both Paul and Rivers participated in practice Tuesday morning in Shanghai.
