EDGE Analysis

Mathurin's acquisition has played a big role in the Clippers' resurgence, and they have a legitimate chance to escape the Play-In bracket if they can string together more victories. Although the team looked like a squad in tank mode after dealing away James Harden and Ivica Zubac, the Clippers have thrived with the addition of Mathurin and Darius Garland. The team is 7-3 over the past 10 games, and Mathurin's continued work with the second unit will remain a critical part of the game plan.
