Despite a spirited effort from the Nuggets young prospects, they were ultimately overwhelmed by a more talented Clippers team hoping to secure the 2nd overall seed in the Western Conference playoffs.
This game definitely mattered a lot more for the Clippers, fighting for a potential second seed in the Western Conference playoffs. To the Nuggets, tonight was just a continuation of an extended 2015-2016 preseason.
First Quarter
- No Ty Lawson, no Danilo Gallinari tonight, who are being held out for "rest reasons". Definitely the sign of the second to last game of the season.
