Stuckey (foot/ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's matchup with the Clippers.

Analysis:

Stuckey's absence streak will extend to seven games as he continues to work back from a right ankle sprain. Stuckey is nearing the end of his initial two-week recovery timetable, but the fact that he's already been ruled out more than 24 hours ahead of Tuesday's game may be an indication that he's not overly close to returning. Monta Ellis and George Hill will continue to soak up most of the backcourt minutes, with Joseph Young and Glenn Robinson III also working their way into the fold.
