With Kawhi Leonard and Paul George both sitting out, Cleveland Cavaliers might have thought about their chances to win this encounter against the LA Clippers. But little did they know, what is in stock for them. Lou Williams led the home team with season-high 30 points double-double. While Williams wasn’t the only one who scored the season-best in this game. Macus Morris Sr. Too did the same scoring 23. 

The 3-time Sixth Man of the Year, Lou Williams started for the first time in this season for the LA Clippers. Talking about the Cavaliers, Collin Sexton scored 23 points for the short-handed Cavs. Darius Garland and reserve Cedi Osman each scored 20 points. The Cavs never made a run in the fourth. Their only lead came in the first when they opened the game on a 7-2 spurt. 

After LA lakers losing to Denver Nuggets, the Clippers are right underneath the skin of their city rivals and still sit on the #3 spot in the Western Conference Table.
