In the NBA regular season, the Clippers lost to the Hawks 102-105 at home and suffered a five-game losing streak.

After the game, Clippers coach Tyronn Lue accepted an interview with reporters. Talking about +14 when today's starters were on the court at the same time, he said: "They performed very well, especially defensively. I think the way we played in the absence of key players was exactly what we showed in the first quarter."

For this campaign, the Clippers started with: Harden, Kris Dunn, Derrick Jones Jr., John Collins, and Zubac.
