CLIPPERS REPORT
Clippers' Elton Brand to return as early as Thursday
The Clippers forward, out all season, could play against the Kings in Sacramento.
Clippers forward Elton Brand is slated to make his season debut shortly, with a possible date being Thursday's visit to Sacramento against the Kings, the team said today.
Brand has missed the season while recovering from a ruptured left Achilles tendon he sustained in an off-season workout in August.
The Clippers have sorely missed his inside game this season, stumbling to a 22-51 record.
If he returned Thursday, Brand, who can opt out of his contract at season's end, would play in seven games before season's end.
His home debut would come Sunday against the Houston Rockets.

If he crushes the competition in the Preakness, and rushes on to the Triple Crown, he'll help racing wipe away images of injuries and drugs. Video
