The San Diego Clippers (5-2) secured a commanding 130-115 victory over the Rip City Remix (1-6) in a dynamic showdown Friday. The first quarter saw 11 lead changes before the Clippers edged ahead by four points, driven by Tosan Evbuomwan’s 14-point surge and a hot 7-for-13 shooting performance from beyond the arc. By halftime, San Diego had built an 11-point lead, bolstered by Nate Darling’s seven second-quarter points and a defensive effort that forced eight Remix turnovers.
Despite a competitive third quarter, the Clippers maintained their double-digit advantage, thanks to RayJ Dennis’ eight points. The Remix narrowed the gap to just five points late in the fourth quarter, but the Clippers sealed the deal with a decisive 13-5 run. We have launched our year-end campaign.
