The Clippers have racked up lots of turnovers lately. This isn’t an emergency. There is no cause for alarm. It’s just a thing to keep an eye on should you happen to watch the squad’s next few games. Via the OC Register:
Before the All-Star break, they averaged 13.3 turnovers per game, sixth-fewest in the NBA. There was a span in March — when [Patrick] Beverley was out with a sore knee but [Kawhi] Leonard was available — that the Clippers registered fewer than 10 turnovers in four of five games.
But then, between April 11 and April 28 — a time frame for which Beverley was sidelined the whole while and Leonard missed all but one game — the Clippers averaged 14.7 turnovers.
And now that they’ve plugged Beverley and Leonard back in and are striving to put it all together again, they followed that 18-turnover outing against the Raptors with a season-high 22 turnovers against the Lakers.
