The Los Angeles Clippers defeated the Portland Trail Blazers , 121 - 120 , Monday night at Staples Center . In a game of runs , the game came down to who could make their free throws in the closing moments , with the Clippers ( 18 - 7 ) converting on just enough of their free throw attempts to hold off the Trail Blazers ( 12 - 14 ) , who refused to go away , in the end . Fresh off his 20 - point , 20 - assist performance Saturday against the Pelicans , Chris Paul put together yet another impressive double - double , posting 21 points and 14 assists in 36 minutes . Blake Griffin led the way scoring for Los Angeles after missing the last game with knee soreness , posting 26 points , 12 rebounds and six assists . As a team , the Clippers were lethal from downtown , shooting 48 percent from long range . The Trail Blazers , however , were equally hot from behind the arc , shooting 48 percent themselves from three - point land . Regardless , they still fell a point short despite putting up an equally impressive performance overall . Their starting backcourt consisting of Damian Lillard and C.J . McCollum combined to score 49 points , while starting center Mason Plumlee put together his best performance of the 2016 - 17 season , posting 18 points , seven rebounds , six assists and five blocks . Plumlee 's performance put him in the same company as both Kevin Durant and Giannis Antetokounmpo as the only three players to post such a stat line . Up next , the Clippers will head to Orlando Wednesday to take on the Magic , while the Trail Blazers will head home Tuesday and play the Thunder .
