Utah outscores the cold-shooting visitors 41-14 in the second quarter and coasts to a 121-92 win, dropping the Clippers below .500 for the first time since Feb. 17.
The Utah Jazz’s concern before tipoff against the Clippers on Friday was how they would handle the absences of Donovan Mitchell and Bojan Bogdanovic , both sidelined with calf strains.
“They polished us,” Clippers coach Tyronn Lue said. “It’s one of those games, we just didn’t have it. Didn’t have a lot of pop. Them being down their two top scorers, we let our guard down.” This season, the Clippers have nine regular-season games remaining before the play-in tournament begins April 12.
Sure, Coach Tyronn Lue’s team has four 20-plus point comebacks this season – including one from 35 points down, one shy of the NBA record established by Utah in 1996. “We all pretty much know what went wrong and what we gotta do,” said Zubac, the longest-tenured Clipper and sixth-year pro who said there was consensus in the locker room after the game. “That was embarrassing from us and we know what we gotta do better.”
