With the Clippers sitting in ninth place at the bottom of the play-in bracket, the desire for Paul George’s return to the floor might be as high as it has ever been this season. That was clearly seen in their most recent early-afternoon struggle against the Grizzlies, where they lost by 15 even as Ja Morant and Steven Adams were sidelined. Unfortunately for the Clippers, they won’t be able to enjoy much of a break as they will face Trae Young and the Atlanta Hawks less than 24 hours after the conclusion of their game against the Grizzlies.
