Returns to action with 12 points Garland had 12 points (4-9 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists and one steal in 23 minutes during Monday's 114-101 win over Golden State.

Impact Garland's minutes were capped as expected, but he looked close to 100 percent during the victory, initiating his return with a long three-pointer early in the contest. Garland's addition will be key for the Clippers down the stretch, as they seem assured of a play-in berth and could even make the regular bracket if the Suns and Warriors falter. The Clippers have a back-to-back coming up this weekend, but Garland should be active Wednesday against the Pacers.

Will be deployed off bench Garland isn't in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Warriors, Law Murray of The Athletic reports.

Impact The Clippers will be monitoring Garland's minutes closely in his first game action since Jan. 14, and the fact that he's being utilized off the bench will make it a bit easier for the team to manage his workload. Kris Dunn will remain in the starting lineup for the time being, though Garland should eventually transition to the starting point guard spot once he's completed his ramp-up period.

Will play Monday Garland (toe) is active for Monday's game against the Warriors, NBA writer Justin Russo reports.

Impact Garland, who has not played since Jan. 14 due to left toe injury management and a right great toe sprain, is set to make his Clippers debut Monday. Before being traded, Garland averaged 18.0 points, 6.9 assists and 2.4 rebounds in 30.5 minutes per contest across 26 appearances for the Cavaliers. Garland figures to see some sort of minutes restriction given the amount of time he has missed, but it should be mentioned that the team will be playing the second half of a back-to-back set, so Garland could end up seeing a sizable role in his return.
