Bennedict Mathuin accounted for 24 points (7-of-15 FGs, 10-of-11 FTs), six rebounds, one assist and one steal in Saturday’s loss to the Kings.

Mathurin extended his streak of 20-point games to five on Saturday, and he may be thrust into a more prominent role to begin Week 21. Kawhi Leonard left Saturday’s game early in the fourth quarter after spraining his left ankle, which could rob the Clippers of their best player. Mathurin may not be a lock to start if Leonard misses time, but his scoring ability will be needed. The Clippers play four games in Week 21, starting with the Spurs on Monday.
