Andrew Bogut did not play in Tuesday night's preseason game against the Clippers due to illness, the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Bogut did not play in Tuesday night's preseason game against the Clippers due to illness, the San Francisco Chronicle reports. He had participated in the morning shootaround prior to being ruled out.

Analysis:

His absence provided an opportunity for head coach Steve Kerr to get a good look at the returning Festus Ezeli (shin). We presume Bogut will be ready to go for the preseason finale Friday against Denver, though it wouldn't be shocking if Kerr held him out in preparation for next week's regular season opener at Sacramento.
