The Los Angeles Clippers ( 12 - 9 ) defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves ( 8 - 12 ) 110 - 106 on Friday thanks to some fourth quarter heroics . The Clippers pulled off an impressive win in Minnesota thanks to a 39 - point fourth quarter . Los Angeles outscored Minnesota 39 - 29 in those final 12 minutes and took an interesting strategy to a win . They continues to foul in the final 30 seconds when up by three and made it a free - throw competition . In fact , there were nearly 20 free - throw attempts combined in the final 30 seconds . The Clippers shot 26 - for - 19 from the charity stripe and that proved to be the difference in the game . The Clippers have now won five of their last six games and things are turning around . Chris Paul and J.J. Redick seemed very unlikely to play in this game , but both started and played well . DeAndre Jordan was the hero tonight though , as he tallied 20 points , 12 rebounds and four blocks in the win . Jamal Crawford also had a great game off the bench , as he contributed 18 points and seven assists as well . This team has all the talent in the world and it appears to be finally coming together . Los Angeles will look to add to this hot stretch when they take on the struggling Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday . The Timberwolves looked in control of this game in the third quarter , but could n't hold off the Clippers . They are now 2 - 9 at home this season and that 's something they 'll need to figure out over time . The bench was a bright spot in the loss though , as they totaled 59 points between five players . The Wolves best player on Monday was Ricky Rubio , as he amassed 16 points , seven assists , five rebounds and four steals in the defeat . Even with the home struggles , they should have a good chance at a win when they host the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday in their next scheduled game .
