On March 10, Beijing time, the Los Angeles Clippers defeated the Washington Wizards 115-109 at home. In this campaign, the Clippers performed very well, and the team's data became the only one in the league.
In today's game, the Clippers shot 50 percent from the field, 50 percent from three-point range, and 100 percent from the free throws. As a result, the Clippers became the first team this season to shoot at least 50%/50%/100% of their three shots, and the third time the team has achieved such an achievement.

Today's game was very dramatic for both teams. At the critical moment, Pope's three-pointer helped the Wizards lead by 5 points, Reggie and Morris Jr. then scored consecutive points to help the team stabilize the point difference, and then, Batum's key three-point shot to reverse the score, and finally Reggie hit two free throws, the point difference stretched to 6 points, and finally the Clippers narrowly beat the Wizards.
Although this season has been difficult for the Clippers, not only did Leonard miss all previous games due to injury at the beginning, but paul George was also plagued by injuries and led to an indefinite suspension, in which case the Clippers did not give up, they still broke into the top eight of the West, and showed good tenacity at key moments of the game.
