</td></tr><tr><td class="bodyCopy">Chris Paul (hamstring) and Mo Williams (back) are not expected to play at Utah on Tuesday.</td></tr><tr><td>

</td></tr><tr><td class="vaLink">Paul is traveling with the team and the hope was that he could play tonight, but the Clippers are going to proceed cautiously here. Hopefully he'll be ready to go on Wednesday when the Clippers host Dallas, but his five-game week has already been turned into a three-gamer, at best.

<table border="0" cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="0" width="100%"><tbody><tr><td>Stephen Curry - G - Warriors </td></tr><tr><td>

</td></tr><tr><td class="bodyCopy">Warriors point guard Stephen Curry is out for Tuesday, and may not play again until Monday, due to his sprained right ankle.</td></tr><tr><td>

</td></tr><tr><td class="vaLink">The Warriors are being very careful here, and will likely want Curry to fully test the ankle in practice before playing in a game. And Saturday is the earliest possible day for the Warriors’ next practice, with their next game falling Monday against the Grizzlies. If he's held out until Monday, that will be nine games and 18 days of rest for the young point guard, which is more time than he missed all of last season.
