Butler to start for Clips despite broken left hand
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- Caron Butler is in the starting lineup for the Los Angeles
Clippers in Game 3 despite breaking his left hand in the opener of their
first-round playoff series against the Memphis
Grizzlies.
Butler sat out Game 2, which the Grizzles won in
Memphis to even the series 1-1.
Clippers coach Vinny Del Negro says the Clippers
might have underestimated the veteran forward's
toughness.
Butler's left hand is his non-shooting
hand.
