Zach Randolph's Clippers Debut Will Have To Wait


Newly acquired Zach Randolph will not be in uniform tonight when the Clippers host the Hornets. He and Mardy Collins will not be allowed to suit up for their new team until all physicals have been completed.

Here is the team's official release: Zach Randolph and Mardy Collins will not be in uniform for tonight’s game between the Clippers and New Orleans Hornets. None of the four players in Friday’s trade between the Clippers and New York Knicks are eligible to play for their new teams until the results of all physicals are known. Accordingly, the Clippers’ Monday afternoon media availability session scheduled for Randolph and Collins will be postponed.

Basically, the issue is the completion of all four physicals. They seem to be taking an extra day on both sides. However, everything is expected to be completed by tomorrow, and you can expect to see Randolph and Collins in uniform for Wednesday's game between the Clippers and the Nuggets.
