Clippers hope to end slide vs. Memphis

Sat 29th, March 2008

(Sports Network) - The Los Angeles Clippers will try to put the brakes on a 10-game losing streak tonight in the opener of a short homestand versus the Memphis Grizzlies at the Staples Center.

Los Angeles will also host Dallas, and is 12-24 at home this season. The Clippers are winless in their last three home games.

In Friday's 121-101 setback to the Utah Jazz in the finale of a three-game road trip at EnergySolutions Arena, Corey Maggette led the way with 28 points over the first three quarters. Chris Kaman tallied 16 points, seven rebounds and six assists in a losing cause for the reeling Clippers.

The Clippers' last win came on March 10 at Miami. They haven't lost 11 straight since a 13-game slide from March 17 - April 11, 2004.

Memphis will conclude a three-game road trip on Saturday, and is 6-30 away from home this season. The Grizzlies are 1-1 so far on the trek and recorded a 114-111 victory against the Lakers at the Staples Center on Friday despite Kobe Bryant's 53-point performance.

Rudy Gay scored 28 points and Darko Milicic ended with 22 points and 12 rebounds for Memphis, which stopped a two-game slide to win for the third time in five tries. Hakim Warrick totaled 16 points and Mike Miller had 10 and 10 rebounds in a winning effort.

The Grizzlies are now 2-19 in their last 21 road contests.

Los Angeles leads the 2007-08 season series with Memphis by a 2-1 count, and has won five of six and six of the previous 10 encounters.

Memphis is winless in its last three as the visitor in this series.

Where the players come to play and STAY.
