Dunleavy to miss game; Maggette \nout for season\nLOS ANGELES -- L.A. Clippers coach Mike Dunleavy was to miss Tuesday night's game against Utah at the Staples Center because of a medical emergency involving his father.\nDunleavy is expected to return from New York, where he has been since Sunday, when circumstances permit, the team said. Assistant Jim Eyen will run the team while Dunleavy is away.\nAlso, guard Corey Maggette will miss the NBA season's final five games because of a torn ligament in his left wrist, leaving the Clippers without their leading scorer.\nMaggette's wrist was set in a cast Monday for two weeks. He averaged a career-high 22.2 points in 66 games this season. He had planned to sit out last Saturday's game against San Antonio, but he decided to play and scored 24 points in a 125-124 double-overtime loss.
