Coming off a crushing road loss to the Indiana Pacers, the LA Clippers are heading into the second leg of their back-to-back series to face the Detroit Pistons on Monday. The Pistons have won six consecutive games, and now are facing a shorthanded Clippers squad to keep their hot streak alive.
The Clippers will be without stars Kawhi Leonard and Norman Powell on Monday, giving them a shorthanded look against a red-hot Pistons squad. The Clippers have lost five of their last eight, as they cannot afford to have Leonard and Powell sidelined for much longer than one contest.
Ahead of Monday's matchup in Detroit, Clippers head coach Ty Lue gave an update on his star players.
