After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Jazz squeaked past the Clippers 93-91. The Clippers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Jazz. Jazz's defenders refused to give up clean looks; the Clippers couldn't shake the cold spell. Whispers of a Clippers locker-room rift aren't helping. The Jazz rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Survive-and-advance type win.
What tipped it
- Clippers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Clippers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
