The San Antonio Spurs have found their stride lately, having won six of their last seven games including a 13-point victory against the Charlotte Hornets in their last matchup. The Spurs have another game with playoff implications Monday night, facing the Los Angeles Clippers , a team they could see in the first round of the postseason. The Clippers had put together four consecutive wins before the Sacramento Kings snapped their streak Saturday.
Currently, the Clippers sit eighth in the Western Conference, ahead of the Golden State Warriors and Portland Trail Blazers . San Antonio sits in second place, hoping to put pressure on the Oklahoma City Thunder for the No. 1 seed.
The Spurs currently trail the Thunder by three and a half games. Heading into tonight's matchup, both teams are dealing with injuries. For San Antonio, they'll be without two of their strongest bench contributors, rookie Dylan Harper and backup center Luke Kornet.
