His injuries during his glory days
In this look back at the 2000-2001 NBA season, we look back at the turning point for third-year forward Brian Skinner. The Clippers winger had a promising start to the season, but was derailed early by an ankle injury, leading to an uneven role throughout the season. Skinner’s re-emergence has become a prominent theme despite spending most of the season as the odd man out.
Coach Alvin Gentry made a calculated decision to use Skinner against Detroit in February 2001. Skinner returned to the floor after a six-game layoff and had an immediate impact, grabbing seven rebounds and four points in 10 minutes. Gentry praised Skinner’s leaping abilities and energetic play, highlighting his important defensive efforts, especially when Detroit tried to attack inside. Despite the ups and downs, Skinner’s tenacity and good impact on the field remained a prominent theme throughout the season.
