The Los Angeles Clippers (49-32) travel to play the Golden State Warriors (48-33) in perhaps the most meaningful game on Sunday’s slate of regular-season finales. The Clippers are rolling, winning seven straight games. Los Angeles defeated the Sacramento Kings 101-100 on Friday. The Warriors defeated the Portland Trail Blazers 103-86 in their last contest. The Clippers can clinch the fifth seed with a win and could move up to No. 4 if the Nuggets fall to the Rockets. Golden State can avoid the play-in tournament with a win. If the Warriors lose, they can still clinch the No. 6 seed if the Wolves lose to Utah. If the Warriors lose and Minnesota wins, Golden State will host a play-in game. Warriors superstar Stephen Curry (thumb) will be a game-time decision on Sunday.
