The hits just keep on coming for the LA Clippers.

According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, starting guard Patrick Beverley underwent a surgical procedure on his right knee and is ruled out indefinitely.

It's a rough blow considering the Clips are already without rookie Milos Teodosic (foot) and have lost 9 in a row (5-11) - it's even tougher sledding w/o a veteran defender like Beverley out of action

Without a timetable for P. Beverley's return, look for Austin Rivers, (6th man) Lou Williams & rookies Sindarius Thornwell & Jawun Evans to soak up the bulk of minutes at both guard spots. 

Beverley, 29, is currently avg. 12.2 ppg & 4.1 rpg.
