This team just loves winning in the most dramatic fashion, huh?

Tyrese Maxey again put in quite the effort to be the game’s leading scorer, going for 39 and six assists shooting 13-of-27 from the field, but he also turned it over twice in the final 14 seconds of the game.

Quentin Grimes went for 19 points on top of phenomenal defense once he was switched onto James Harden, even if he got away with one on the last possession of the game. VJ Edgecombe again had his moments, going for 14 points on 6-of-13 shooting along with six rebounds and six assists. Andre Drummond had 14 points and 18 boards.

Paul George, in his season debut had nine points, shooting 2-of-9 from the floor along with seven rebounds, three assists and two blocks in 21:06 of playing time. Harden led the Clippers with 28.

Joel Embiid missed his third straight game with a right knee injury. Kelly Oubre Jr. (knee) and Adem Bona (ankle) were both out as well after suffering injuries last week vs. Detroit. On the second night of a back-to-back, the Clippers were without Kawhi Leonard as well as Bradley Beal and Derrick Jones Jr.
