LA vs. Utah preview

The two teams will meet up at Vivint Smart Home Arena with Los Angeles trying to stave off elimination.

In that contest, Gordon Hayward had 27 points on 9-for-16 shooting to go with eight rebounds, four assists, and two steals. Utah also won the rebounding battle 43-34 for a decisive advantage in the paint. Rudy Gobert helped in the middle with a double-double performance of 11 points and 11 boards.

Leading the Clippers since the loss of Blake Griffin to an injury earlier in the series has been point guard Chris Paul. He had 28 points on 10-for-19 shooting in Game 5 to go with nine assists. DeAndre Jordan pulled down 12 rebounds for his team to go with the 14 points he scored, while JJ Redick added 26 points for the scoring load.
