The Los Angeles Clippers are getting closer to full strength. Despite a loss to the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday, they have some good news regarding their team as they welcomed 6th Man of the Year Finalist Montrezl Harrell into the bubble for the first time. Harrell was mourning the loss of his grandmother and had not been with the team for the past few weeks, tweeted that he is ‘back.’
I’m back!!!!!!!!

Clippers coach Doc Rivers did not give any specifics on when the team can expect Harrell back in uniform, but he did say they are hopeful they can get him with some workouts before the playoffs begin next week.
Doc Rivers on the possibility of Montrezl Harrell returning this week and playing in a seeding game before the playoffs: “We don’t give out that information. But we hope so, that’s all I can say.”

The Clippers have looked pretty good all things considered in the bubble. They were without Lou Williams for their first two games of the bubble and they’ve been without Harrell for the entirety of their stay. Harrell, who is represented by Klutch Sports, will be an unrestricted free agent after the season.
