The Clippers earned a hard-fought win over the Blazers on Tuesday night and the franchise is being cautious on the second night of their back-to-back with several of their players.
Los Angeles will rest Paul George against the Grizzlies and they’ll do the same with both Reggie Jackson and Rajon Rondo.
Kawhi Leonard remains out with a sore foot (expected to be out until at least next week) and Serge Ibaka, who has missed significant time this year, is officially out with lower back tightness.
