A good win finally came the Clippers’ way.

Taking advantage of an undermanned Lakers team, LA cruised to a 103-88 victory Sunday (PH time) at the Intuit Dome.

It’s the Clippers first home win since beating New Orleans all the way back on November 1 (PH). LA improved to 7-21 for the season.

Kawhi Leonard had a big game with 32 points, 12 rebounds, three assists, three steals, and two blocks to lead the Clippers’ charge.

 

 

James Harden had 21 points and 10 assists, while John Collins added 17 points and 12 rebounds.

The Lakers got a season-high 36 points from LeBron James, but the team missed Austin Reaves, Deandre Ayton, and Rui Hachimura prior to the game.

Luka Doncic scored 12, but he didn’t come out for the second half due to a leg contusion. The Lakers dropped to 19-8 with the loss.
