The LA Clippers are heading into a huge matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday night after winning four consecutive games and seven of their last eight.

The Clippers are clicking at the right time, with just 13 games left in the regular season, but a concerning development has come to life recently.

LA picked up a huge 13-point win over the Cleveland Cavaliers in their last game on Tuesday but had to play without head coach Ty Lue on the sideline. Lue did not coach due to intensified back pain and is now set to miss Friday's game against Memphis too.
