Tonight just wasn’t the Los Angeles Clippers‘ night.
Despite getting PG Chris Paul back from injury, Los Angeles lost at home to the San Antonio Spurs by the score of 105-97.
Midway through the fourth quarter, Clippers power forward Blake Griffin drove to the basket and was fouled hard by Dewayne Dedmon.
Unfortunately, Griffin suffered a laceration above his eye that immediately started bleeding.
