The blows just keep coming for the bedraggled Clippers. Yesterday, Doc Rivers said that Jawun Evans needed surgery for his sports hernia— which means he will join Patrick Beverley and Avery Bradley in the “missing the rest of the season” section on the bench. Evans missed time with the same injury starting in late January and ending in early March, so he was either never really healthy, or he aggravated the injury in recent weeks. Either way, Jawun Evans’ rookie season is now over.
Jawun played in 48 games for the Clippers this season, starting four, and averaged a respectable 16.
