Trailing 101-100, the Clippers had multiple chances to take the lead in the final 22 seconds, but Norman Powell missed a 3-point attempt and Leonard was off target on a contested 21-footer.

Gilgeous-Alexander extended the lead to three points against his former team on two free throws with three seconds remaining. The Clippers got the ball back, but Leonard was intentionally fouled. After purposefully missing the second free throw, they could not score at the buzzer.
