March 22--Clippers Coach Doc Rivers said before practice Tuesday that Jeff Green was cleared by the NBA after he missed Sunday night's game at New Orleans with concussion-like symptoms.
Green will take the court when the Clippers play the defending NBA champion Golden State Warriors on Wednesday night in Oakland.
Green had sustained a gash on his forehead during Saturday night's game at Memphis that required eight stitches.
Because the game in New Orleans was less than 24 hours after Green was injured in Memphis, he was required to sit out the game against the Pelicans because of the NBA concussion rules.
Green shot before practice when the media was allowed in the facility.
"He's good," Rivers said. "He's cleared. I don't know what they were looking for, to be honest."
