Clippers vs Thunder Game Thread: The Best in the West

LA Clippers Kawhi Leonard

The Clippers have had an up-and-down start to their season, and now face off against the West-leading Thunder on the second night of a back-to-back. It’s probably going to be a tough one.

Game Information

Where: Intuit Dome, Inglewood, California

When: 8:00

How to Watch: NBC, Peacock, AM 570

Projected Starting Lineups

Thunder: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander – Cason Wallace – Lu Dort – Chet Holmgren – Isaiah Hartenstein

Clippers: James Harden – Bradley Beal – Derrick Jones Jr. – Kawhi Leonard – Ivica Zubac

Injuries

Thunder: Chet Holmgren Questionable (Back), Lu Dort Questionable (Illness), Ousmane Dieng Questionable (Calf), Jalen Williams Out (Wrist), Kenrich Williams Out (Knee), Nikola Topic Out (Cancer), Thomas Sorber Out (Knee)

Clippers: Jordan Miller Out (Hamstring), Kobe Sanders Out (Knee)

The Clippers are playing at home and are much healthier than the Thunder, but the Thunder are 7-0 for a reason: they have the best defense in the league and boast a clear top-five player in SGA. The Clippers can definitely win this one, especially if Dort and Chet are out, but they will need to be better on defense and more turnover-conscious on offense than they have been to pull out the victory.
