Is the Clippers slump finally over? Maybe, maybe not. After 4 straight losses, albeit to very good teams in the Raptors, Thunder, and Blazers, the Clippers steadied the ship with back to back wins over the Mavericks and Nuggets to close out the week.

They got a break against Denver, as Jokic was ejected from the game in the 3rd quarter after scoring 19 Points in 20 minutes, but they were already up 11 Points so maybe it wouldn't have mattered at the end of the day.

Lou Williams returned from injury against the Mavericks and it's probably not a surprise that they've started winning again with him back in the fold. While Tobias Harris has undoubtedly been their best player, Danilo Gallinari is playing some of the best basketball of his career right now and has scored at least 20 Points in 4 straight games. He'll have to keep it up, as it doesn't get any easier for the Clippers with the Warriors and Lakers coming up this week.
