Aldridge: 27 points, 4 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 steals on 85.7 % shooting

Gay: 21 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals and a block on 80.0 % shooting

While LaMarcus Aldridge is carrying his last season form into this season and is posting huge numbers, Rudy Gay took his game to another level this season and particularly from the three-point land, he is knocking them down at career-best 48.5 percent.

Against the Clippers, the duo went off and combined for 48 points on ridiculous 20-for-24 (83.3%). The duo kept hitting shots from anywhere on the court. Aldridge was very dominant in the paint and used his size to score buckets.

On a night when DeRozan could not get it going from the field (shooting), the two big men carried the team home.
