With Norman Powell joining the injured Kawhi Leonard on the bench, the Clippers can't overcome their shooting woes in a 108-80 loss to the Timberwolves.
The story for the Clippers on Wednesday night was their list of injured players. Yet, even without four key players, the Clippers had no choice but to push on against the Minnesota Timberwolves at Intuit Dome. The problem was the Timberwolves pushed back harder in a dominating 108-80 win that included Minnesota taking a 41-point lead at one point. Playing seven games in 11 days hasn't helped the Clippers weather their injury issues.
“Like, that’s got to be our staple every night and that’s what our team has given us so far these first games. And, so, the next guy in the rotation, the next man up, they are going to come in and do the same thing. So, nothing really changes.” From the start Wednesday, the Clippers could see it was going to be a long night. They were held to 14 points in the first quarter, shooting just 27.3% from the field and 15.4% from three-point range. They scored 32 points in the first half, shooting 28.
