The Crypto.com Arena saw the arch-rivals Los Angeles Lakers and the Los Angeles Clippers go head to head on Thursday night. Although the game was missing the shine and luster of big stars, it delivered terms of the nail-biting experience. The game went down to the wire with five lead changes in the last 63 seconds. The Los Angeles Clippers prevailed as they beat the Los Angeles Lakers 111-110.
The Battle of LA today might not be what it used to be just two years ago. Both the teams had their biggest stars missing. Kawhi Leonard and Paul George are unavailable for the Clippers owing to injuries. LeBron James is out to sore left knee for the Lakers. The Lakers won their previous game against the Blazers at home on their own Crypto.com Arena coming on the back of three losses. They fell to the Clippers again which makes their season record 25-28. Clippers on the other hand have been showing a lot of heart and are 27-27 for the season with their stars out for a majority of the time.

Clippers shot efficiently from the field, going 51% overall from the field and 43% from the three-point range in the game. The veteran Marcus Morris Sr. led the scoring with 29 points, going 6-7 from the three.
