LA Clippers vs. Chicago Bulls
5 THINGS TO KNOW
- Last Matchup: 01/31/2023 | LAC 108 - CHI 103 | K.Leonard: 33 PTS - N.Vucevic: 23 PTS
- The Clippers have shot above 50.0 percent from the field and 45.0 percent from three in each of their last two games. Just three teams have done so in three straight games this season – the Clippers themselves, the Celtics and the Suns.
- Bones Hyland has at least 15 points and seven assists in his last two games. The only player this season to do so in three or more consecutive games without starting is his current teammate Russell Westbrook, who did so in four straight games with the Lakers.
- Los Angeles is 3-0 in games immediately following their last three losses. In those three games, Kawhi Leonard is averaging 30.0 points per game on 58.2 percent shooting from the field, 44.4 percent from three and 94.7 percent from the free-throw line.
- Eric Gordon has made at least one three-pointer in 18 straight games against the Bulls. That is tied with Stephen Curry for the third-longest active such streak in the NBA, trailing only teammate Paul George (19 straight) and Khris Middleton (20 straight).
