Paul George, Kawhi Leonard rescue Clippers late to snap slide

LOS ANGELES -- The LA Clippers were staring at the possibility of a disastrous and crushing loss Sunday night after surrendering 51 points in the third quarter and falling behind by 14 with under nine minutes left to the undermanned Memphis Grizzlies.

But Paul George and Kawhi Leonard took over the game and lifted the Clippers to perhaps their biggest win of the season. George and Leonard scored 25 of their team's final 28 points to rally the Clippers past Memphis, 135-129, at Crytpo.com Arena.

The much-needed win halted a five-game slide and gave the Clippers their first victory since the All-Star break.
