The Toronto Raptors will try to make it seven straight wins tonight, as they’re in Staples Centre to play the more depressing of the two Los Angeles teams (who had that in October?) — the Clippers.
Yes, the poor Clippers have been decimated by injuries, with two starters down for the long-term in Patrick Beverley and Blake Griffin. Scoring forward Danilo Gallinari will also sit this one out, dealing with a recurring glute (not flute) injury.
#Clippers will be without Danilo Gallinari tonight - missed 13 games with a flute injury and suffered a setback after just two games

They will, meanwhile, be with the services of Milos Teodosic, a passing mixtape artist who’s been sitting since early in the year with plantar fascia.
