Williams missed the last four games due to injury, but his return marked an important breakthrough win for his plummeting team. The Former NBA's sixth-man of the year scored 13 of his 26 points during the fourth quarter to help the Clippers hold off the Dallas Mavericks and contributed eight assists as well.

He has been averaging 17.5 points per game this season and played a huge role in the 12-point Clippers rally in the final minutes of this game to ice it once and for all.

Doc Rivers knows what Lou brings to the table and he aptly summed it up after he helped his team get an important win,

"Lou was fantastic. Early on I thought his passing was fantastic and then he started the scoring barrage down the stretch," Clippers coach Doc Rivers said. "He gives us a confidence when you have him on the floor. It's not necessarily you are going to go to him but he is going to be involved."
