The banged-up New Orleans Hornets are struggling through their worst stretch of a once-promising season. Perhaps a matchup with the Los Angeles Clippers can give their confidence a boost.
In danger of losing an eighth straight road game, the Hornets look to extend a 12-game winning streak against the lowly Los Angeles Clippers on Monday night.

New Orleans (32-35) is 7-14 since losing Chris Paul(notes) to a knee injury. The three-time All Star may be a week away from returning, but it’s too late for the Hornets to make a playoff push.
A 118-88 loss to San Antonio on Saturday night ensured the Clippers of a third straight losing season. Los Angeles will finish below .500 for the 16th time in 17 years, and it’s hardly inspiring players to put forth their best effort down the stretch.
The Clippers have been outscored by an average of 20.0 points during their skid.
“Whether they think the season is done, whether they’re going for points, whatever’s going on with them has to change, because we’re not done,” coach Kim Hughes said. “It’s still a teaching process. I don’t intend to let it happen that we’re going to play like that. If it’s going to play like that, then minutes will have to be adjusted. It’s just not fair.”
Los Angeles has given up at least 60 points or more in the paint in two straight games—well above its season average of 42.9.
