Minutes were spread around the Clippers ' rotation , with second unit running the floor late in the fourth quarter . Raymond Felton pitched in 18 minutes , while Austin Rivers saw 24 minutes . The Suns were simply unable to match the efficiency that Clippers showed throughout the second half , but did see T.J. Warren , Eric Bledsoe , Alex Len and Brandon Knight finish in double figures . The Los Angeles Clippers defeated the Phoenix Suns 116 - 98 at Staples Center on Monday . The Clippers ( 40 ) rallied behind their core four starters in Chris Paul , Blake Griffin , DeAndre Jordan and JJ Reddick in the blowout win over the Suns . The two teams battled it out through three quarters , and Phoenix was able to keep the game within striking distance towards the end of the fourth quarter , but the Clippers started to pull away through effective pick - and - roll play and Jamal Crawford 's bench performances .

The aforementioned core four starters all finished in double figures , led by Paul 's 24 points , eight assists and five rebounds , while Griffin totalled 21 points , five assists and 11 rebounds .

Sophomore Devin Booker was ruled out for the game as he nursed a sprained right big toe .
