made a pair of free throws with 1:20 remaining in the second quarter to put Washington up 66-31 over L.A. That 35-point lead was trimmed to 30 as the two teams entered halftime.
But the Clips put together a pair of 40-point quarters in the second half, outscoring Washington 80-49, as they came roaring back for an improbable 116-115 victory. The Clippers’ latest comeback required some late heroics from guard Luke Kennard, as well as a couple of ugly blunders from the Wizards. Kennard knocked down a 3-pointer with nine seconds remaining to bring Los Angeles within three points. The Wizards then called a timeout but still had trouble inbounding the ball as they were called for a five-second violation.
Kennard capitalized on the turnover with another clutch 3 to tie the game in the final seconds, and he was fouled by Beal on the shot attempt. The fifth-year guard converted the free throw to complete the go-ahead four-point play and give the Clippers a historic comeback victory.
