The Clippers (42-36) were able to stave off slipping out of the playoff race for one more day. The team used a 41-point fourth quarter to overcome a deficit that had gotten as high as 19 to claw out a win against the Spurs (45-34) in Los Angeles on Tuesday. Tonight, the Clippers travel to Salt Lake City to face the 4th seeded Utah Jazz (45-33) in yet another make or break game.
The Jazz have been on an incredible run since being left for dead in mid-January, winning 24 of their last 31 games.
