Los Angeles Clippers 91, Minnesota Timberwolves 87
Al Thornton led the way for the Los Angeles Clippers (6-9) Monday night as they squeezed out a win against the terrible Minnesota Timberwolves (1-13). Thornton had 31 points on 11-16 shooting and added 10 rebounds and an assist. Marcus Camby had a double-double, with 12 points and 18 rebounds. Baron Davis had a terrible night, but he came through when the Clippers needed him most. With the shot-clock running down and the Clippers only up 2, Davis drove to the hoop and scored a contested lay-up with 8 seconds left to seal the win. It was Davis’ first field goal of the game, as he went 1-10 from the field. Chris Kaman added 15 points and 7 rebounds, but he was off tonight as well hitting only 6-20 shots. The defense did a good job tonight since the shooting was not great, forcing 21 turnovers and holding the Timberwolves to only 14 points in the 4th quarter. Rookie Johnny Flynn was the T’Wolves top player, getting 17 points, 5 assists, and a steal.
