This is worst case scenario for the Clippers. Ouch. Chris Paul has a torn ligament in his left thumb that will require surgery and he is expected to miss 6-to-8 weeks. Raymond Felton and Austin Rivers will handle the point guard duties with Jamal Crawford seeing more run. (Dan Woike on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
Raymond Felton and Austin Rivers can both be picked up in 12-team leagues with CP3 and Blake Griffin out now. Rivers is the superior scorer but Felton will likely start. Jamal Crawford gets a boost as well as J.J. Redick. It's a huge blow for the Clippers and fantasy owners.
