Los Angeles Clippers guard Sam Cassell will miss Wednesday night's game against the Detroit Pistons with back spasms.

Cassell, who hit two late 3-pointers to help Los Angeles beat the New York Knicks 85-82 on Tuesday night, was scratched just before game time.

Cassell is third on the team in scoring with 18 points a game, and leads the Clippers with 6.5 assists.
