The Los Angeles Clippers defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers, 133-92, at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse on Sunday night.

The Clippers (37-16) came into the contest short-handed, as Kawhi Leonard sat out with a sore left knee. That hardly seemed to matter, considering Los Angeles jumped out to a 15-point lead over the Cavaliers (13-40) through the first 12 minutes that they'd extended to 23 by halftime. The game was essentially over by that point, but the visitors added another 11 points to their edge heading into a final period that was a mere formality. Besides the scoreboard, one of the Clippers' biggest advantages was in the shooting, as they drained 57.0 percent of their attempts while limiting Cleveland to a 36.8 percent success rate.

Lou Williams led the Clippers with 25 points, adding five rebounds, three assists and two steals. Paul George followed with 22 points, six boards, four assists, one steal and one block. Montrezl Harrell delivered 19 points, nine rebounds, three assists and one block. Landry Shamet supplied 11 points, four boards, three assists and one block. Marcus Morris and Amir Coffey generated matching 10-point, four-rebound efforts.

Andre Drummond made his Cavaliers debut and led the team with a 19-point, 14-rebound double-double that also included three assists, two steals and one block. Kevin Porter, Jr. furnished 17 points, four boards, three assists and one steal. Collin Sexton registered 13 points, three assists, two rebounds and one steal. Kevin Love managed 10 points, nine boards, two assists and one steal.

The Clippers remain on the road and take on the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday night, while the Cavaliers remain home to tangle with the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday night.
