LA completed the regular season with a 51-31 record that secured fourth spot in the Western Conference.

The Clippers went 6-4 over their final 10 games, starting this sequence with six wins coming in a seven-game spell.

They won 100-97 in Orlando and 130-118 in Charlotte, before falling to a 109-95 defeat when they visited Sacramento.
