Clippers (31-31) were last over .500 on January 3, before losing to the Timberwolves.
Since then, Clippers have lost their last five chances to get over .500 (at Phoenix, at New Orleans, at Miami, at Indiana, vs Bucks)
They get another chance tonight at Houston to end February. – 4:26 PM

Phoenix Suns are the 2nd best team defensively in the NBA when switching the pick and roll. Only Boston is better. Teams have switched against the Jazz on pick and roll more than any team in the NBA. Keep an eye on that today – 3:32 PM

Rick Carlisle opting not to provide injury updates pregame. Duarte and Stephenson are both questionable.
He said nothing changes for Brogdon as they begin a stretch of 3 games in 4 days, including a b2b. I expect for him to remain on a minutes restriction. – 3:30 PM

Rick Carlisle says he has no injury updates on Lance Stephenson (left ankle) and Chris Duarte (left big toe), who are both questionable to play.
Lol one of those things where he probably knows but just doesn’t want to say.
We’ll all know anyway in 1.5 hours. #Pacers – 3:26 PM
