The LA team had some crucial contributions from Reggie Jackson and Terance Mann. Clippers point guard Jackson had signed a two-year $21M deal with the franchise during the off-season after a notable performance in the 2021 playoffs.

The 31-year old hasn’t had a great start to the season but has improved in the last couple of games, especially his performance against the Orlando Magic. Jackson sank a jumper with 2.2 seconds remaining on the clock to give Clippers the lead, resulting in a W.
