The Los Angeles Clippers have been in desperation mode after starting the season 6-21. They have righted the ship since then are now 19-23 after their sixth straight win on Monday night against the Wizards.

The Los Angeles Clippers have managed to right the ship after a miserable 6-21 start to the season. After a 119-105 win over the Washington Wizards, on Wednesday night, the Clippers have won 11 of 13, including four straight, and are just a half-game back of the 10th place Memphis Grizzlies for the last play-in spot at 17-23.

James Harden has passed Shaquille O’Neal for ninth place on the NBA’s all-time scoring list. The Los Angeles Clippers guard made a 3-pointer early in the third quarter on Monday night against the Charlotte Hornets.

Bradley Beal (hip), Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring) and Derrick Jones Jr. (knee) will remain sidelined for the Clippers. The Knicks, on the other hand, will not have the services of Josh Hart (ankle) and Landry Shamet (shoulder) for Wednesday’s contest.

Harden reached his latest scoring landmark in the third quarter of the 117-109 win, and he did so, fittingly, with a 3-pointer. O'Neal is the second player Harden has passed on the leaderboard this season, as he leaped over Carmelo Anthony earlier in the campaign to become a top-10 scorer.

James Harden scored 36 points, and when he finally missed a couple big free throws in the final seconds, the ball came right back to him as the Los Angeles Clippers edged the Washington Wizards 110-106 on Monday for their sixth straight victory.

Wizards lose their seventh straight game. Those pesky young Wizards fought in this game. This is despite the dominance of James Harden. As the game went on, the Wizards decided to double team Harden to get the ball out of his hands more.
