MILWAUKEE (AP) — Bennedict Mathurin scored 28 points, John Collins 22 and Kawhi Leonard 20 as the Los Angeles Clippers got past the short-handed Milwaukee Bucks 127-113 on Sunday for their fifth consecutive win.

BOTTOM LINE: Los Angeles will attempt to extend its five-game win streak with a victory over Portland. The Clippers are 22-23 against Western Conference opponents. Los Angeles ranks last in the Western Conference recording 40.7 rebounds per game led by Kawhi Leonard averaging 6.3.

They still have nine games to go in their regular season campaign which means that there is a very real possibility that this squad outright gets an NBA Playoffs spot. Kawhi Leonard has been a big factor in those goals and he outlined how his teammates are thinking as the postseason looms.

Future Los Angeles Clippers free agent Bennedict Mathurin recently landed bad news on his contract, with the qualifying offer dipping.
