Luc Mbah a Moute isn’t going anywhere, which might be the best gift of all for someone who had his contract voided this summer by the Sacramento Kings and had to make the Clippers’ roster in training camp on a nonguaranteed contract.

The small forward made his ninth consecutive start Monday, an indication that his value has risen to the point where the Clippers will keep him for the rest of the season.

“I would say, yeah, that’s safe,” Clippers Coach Doc Rivers said.

That means there won’t be any drama on Jan. 10, when Mbah a Moute’s $1.3-million contract for this season officially becomes guaranteed.
