Billups could start conditioning next week
Chauncey Billups - G - Los Angeles Clippers

Chauncey Billups (foot) could begin doing conditioning work early next week, according to coach Vinny Del Negro.

While that's good news, Del Negro was also very careful to say that Billups is not close to return and remains behind teammate Grant Hill (knee) in terms of recovery. Owners shouldn't be waiting around for either, particularly Billups, who will struggle to carve out a legitimate fantasy role even when healthy.
