Tonight, the L.A. Clippers and Utah Jazz will face off in a critical game 3. With the series tied 1-1 following a split in Los Angeles, the Clippers need to win one of the next two games in Utah in order to avoid a treacherous 3-1 deficit. The Jazz, playing without Rudy Gobert, will do their best to hold on to the narrow advantage they carved out in their game 1 buzzer-beating win.
