The Los Angeles Clippers lost their seventh game in a row in heartbreaking fashion Friday, falling to the Cleveland Cavaliers 118-113 in overtime. Remarkably, the Clippers managed to lose the match-up despite never trailing Cleveland in all 48 minutes of regulation play.
The Clippers were hoping to snap a six-game losing streak, but lost steam at the end of each quarter and in the overtime period, allowing Cleveland to steal the win.
The Clippers were playing without starters Milos Teodosic, Danilo Gallinari and Patrick Beverley, but the Cavaliers were similarly short-handed, playing without Isaiah Thomas, Tristan Thompson, and starting point guard Derrick Rose.
