Milos Teodosic is not expected to return to action before Christmas, as the Clippers are not going to risk aggravating his injury.

According to a report by LA Times, Italian forward Danilo Gallinari is expected to be back much sooner than the Serbian guard.

“Starting small forward Danilo Gallinari, who missed his ninth straight game with a strained left glute, is closer to returning than starting point guard Milos Teodosic, who missed his 16th straight game with plantar fasciitis on his left foot”

Coach Doc Rivers explained why the team is not going to rush anyone. “Gallo is not coming back until he’s right,” Rivers said. “We’re not going to rush anybody back. I don’t care what situation you’re in. Not only is it going to make it worse, because then he’ll come back and get injured, or any of our guys. That’s one thing we’ll never do.”
