PREVIEW: The LA Clippers (17-23) are attempting to move up in the Western Conference after winning four straight games. Toronto (25-17) has been inconsistent lately, but it is fourth in the standings in the Eastern Conference. Kawhi Leonard was questionable to play against Washington, but instead of sitting out, he scored 33 points and shot 7 of 11 from 3-point range in the Clippers' 119-105 win. The Clippers rank first in efficient free throw shooting (84.4%) and first in high frequency post-up shots, while Toronto ranks second in good passing and fourth in efficient attacking the rim. Toronto came off a 115-101 win over Indiana on Wednesday as a 1.5-point underdog, and they've won five of their last seven games, though they fell at home to Philadelphia on Monday. The Raptors are elite defensively, holding teams to just 46.1% from the field to rank sixth. However, Toronto ranks 24th in both frequency of 3-point shooting and efficiency from beyond the arc, and they struggle with low spacing on offense at rank 28th. The Clippers have won and covered three of their last four road games, entering this matchup with significant momentum despite their inconsistent season.
