Although the games are non-bearing and De'Aaron Fox out to recharge for the regular season, the Kings fall 0-5, making it their worst preseason since 1991.

For the second consecutive game, six Clippers scored in double figures including 21 points by sophomore Jordan Miller, a 48th overall pick in the second round of the NBA 2023 Draft.

While all-star Kawhi Leonard continues to rehab his inflamed right knee and sidelined for an indefinite period of time, the Clippers gave their fans something to cheer on, winning four straight including two at their brand-new arena and ended their preseason campaign on a high note, dropping only one game at the opener in Hawaii.
