The Clippers avoided a hit to their rotation when Norman Powell played Thursday night despite suffering a knee contusion one night earlier in Sacramento.
Reinserted midway through the second quarter trailing by 16, the Clippers' starters trimmed the deficit to 11 by halftime. They were within four points four minutes into the third quarter. Sixty-two seconds later, Golden State had scored seven unanswered points, a spurt started by the thing that hurt them for the first half - an offensive rebound that led to second-chance points.
