J.J. Redick on Wednesday was listed as questionable for the Clippers’ game Thursday at Cleveland because of ongoing back spasms. But on Thursday morning  he was downgraded to doubtful.

Redick missed the first stop of this current eight-game Grammy road trip Jan. 28 at Utah. He played 28 minutes in each of the next two games – at New Orleans and at San Antonio – before coming out after just four minutes in Monday’s loss at Brooklyn.

Redick, 30, played in only 35 games a season ago because of injuries, one of which was a bulging disk in his back.
