Doc Rivers says Jamal Crawford may not return to Clippers this season

Coach Doc Rivers said that Jamal Crawford has shown improvement. But afterward, Rivers was taken to task about just how uneasy he is regarding Crawford’s status.

“Well, I’m concerned,” he said. “I mean, make no mistake about that. I mean, I was pretty confident that Blake (Griffin) would be back at some point, so I didn’t have concern on that. But I do have concern with Jamal; I’ll say that.”

Rivers was then asked the million-dollar question: Is it possible Crawford may not return at all this season?

“There’s a chance,” said Rivers.
