- Al Thornton looked spry at practice today. The ankle has improved and he’s probable for tomorrow night’s game vs. Chicago.
- 22-year-old Yaroslav Korolev has been logging meaningful minutes and has put up some respectable numbers with the Albuquerque Thunderbirds of the D-League.
- A little dated (from Jan. 15), but Baron Davis talks Blake Griffin, John Lucas and western conference point guards with Mason & Ireland.
- Chris Kaman’s field-goal percentage drops considerably in the fourth quarter. I think this is less likely a product of conditioning and clutchness, as it is a tendency for opponents to double Chris late in the game.
- A couple of sources have said the Clippers aren’t likely to move Marcus Camby unless they’re absolutely overwhelmed by an offer. Some of that can be attributed to Blake Griffin’s season-ending injury, but much of it has to do with the fact that there aren’t that many available players who are compelling to the Clips and who fit their very particular needs. The Clips are a team that’s set at four of five positions for the foreseeable future. Good healthy small forwards with reasonable contracts are in short supply.
