NBA Finals: Warriors' Ian Clark inactive for Game 5

OAKLAND -- Who will start Game 5 in Draymond Green's absence remains a mystery, but Warriors coach Steve Kerr confirmed Ian Clark will be inactive on Monday night.

With Green suspended for one game, the Warriors have to replace him in the starting lineup but also must keep him on their active roster.Injured rookie Kevon Looney takes up one of the inactive spots, but with James Michael McAdoo and Brandon Rush needed with Green out, it's Clark that will sit."It's unfortunate," Kerr said. "It's a rule I'd like to see the league change, frankly. I guess the point is if you suspend a player that the team should be punished and not have an extra player.
