Transcript
00:00 Now that he's finished with his 10-day quarantine, LA Clippers guard Lou Williams is officially
00:04 set to make his seeding game debut in this afternoon's matchup with the Phoenix Suns
00:09 according to Athletic Champs Geronimo.
00:11 Williams' status is yet to be confirmed by the team, but according to Geronimo, his agent
00:15 says he will play today.
00:17 It's also unclear how many minutes Williams will see in his return.
00:20 The crafty guard played in LA's first scrimmage game on July 22nd and scored a game-high 22
00:25 points in 17 minutes of play, but that was almost two weeks ago and he hasn't seen the
00:28 floor since then.
00:30 Williams left the bubble on July 24th and was excused to do so as he was heading to
00:33 an important finding matter back home.
00:35 He did attend a funeral while he was away, but he also made headlines for picking up
00:38 wings at Gentleman's Club as well.
00:40 Following an NBA investigation, Williams was subject to a 10-day quarantine in Orlando
00:45 violating the rules.
00:46 His presence in the team's second unit hasn't been missed since he's been away.
00:49 Clippers have to dig deeper into the bench to make up for the lost points.
00:53 Against the Los Angeles Lakers, LA's bench produced his 31 points, roughly 20 points
00:57 shy of the season average.
00:59 Of course, Williams isn't the only star to reserve for the absence team right now.
01:02 Montrez Harold, who we recently watched as a grandmother, still hasn't made his double
01:05 debut.
01:06 Doc Rivers does expect Harold to return, but says on Saturday he told him only to come
01:10 back when he's ready.
01:12 Clippers and Phoenix Suns will face off on Tuesday, August 4th at 4pm ET.
