    The Clippers have listed Paul George (hamstring), Luke Kennard (calf), and Nicolas Batum (ankle) as questionable for this game.

    According to Ohm Youngmisuk of ESPN.com, Kawhi Leonard (knee) is not on the injury report for Sunday’s game against the Hawks. If Kawhi Leonard plays, it will be his first home game in 18 days.

    For the Clippers overall, Sunday's game vs Hawks will be their third home game in 22 days.

The Hawks looked miserable last game against our neighbor. This only means they will probably play like a contender tonight. Need to see some sense of urgency from the get go tonight, no more slow start please.

Without Capela, Hawks are just a bunch of skinny dudes. Should be able to Bully them.

It takes a 5 game losing streak for Ty Lue to start T-Mann over Reggie. Better late than never I guess.

Much better start, Mann and Zu are providing energy

When Zu is assertive, he's a different animal. Think going forward, he should get one of the games first three looks to keep him engaged

Worth a try. Reggie is baked lately and Mann is fresh. Interesting Wall doesn't get the start.

Please tell me Brown's recent play will end the small ball love for Lue. I get that Brown is very raw and unorthodox, but we need size behind Zu.

I'd like to see Lue stagger and have Mann in with Reggie and Wall with Morris more often.

Loved the start
Hated the finish to the 1st

Quick take … Wall is not happening. He’s making bad TO’s and his shot sucks too. No D either

I hope. The 3 guard lineup is an epic fail.

18 point swing, had plenty of good looked on offense, just couldn't hit the open and good looks. Defense struggled as Lue went with a head scratching four guards and Moses Brown

Finally get the guys playing fast and hard and then he goes to the 4 guard lineup. Unreal.

13-0 run , not surprised by a young team playing hard.

Moses Brown looks goofy out there but puts in effort and already has 4 point and 7 rebounds as well as altered a shot.

Kawhi looks fine and fluid.
