The LA Clippers and Memphis Grizzlies face off in a game that the LA Clippers absolutely need to win against a shorthanded Grizzlies.

The Clippers only have two players listed on their injury report: Mason Plumlee and Brandon Boston. Mason Plumlee is out with an MCL sprain for at least two months after Julius Randle tackled his leg. Brandon Boston is out with left quadriceps tendinopathy that he's been dealing with since the very first game of the preseason. Kawhi Leonard, Paul George, Russell Westbrook, and James Harden are all playing today.

The Memphis Grizzlies are still very shorthanded, with seven players listed on their injury report: Steven Adams, Brandon Clarke, GG Jackson, Jake LaRavia, Ja Morant, Derrick Rose, and Xavier Tillman. Steven Adams is out with PCL surgery in his right knee, Brandon Clarke is out rehabbing surgery in his left Achilles tendon, GG Jackson is out due to a G League two-way, Jake LaRavia is out due to a G League assignment, Ja Morant is out due to a league suspension, Derrick Rose is out due to a left knee injury, and Xavier Tillman is out due to a left knee injury,

Simply put, there's just no excuse for the LA Clippers not to win this game. They've been struggling since acquiring James Harden, but to not beat this Grizzlies team would cement them as the worst team in the NBA right now.

The LA Clippers and Memphis Grizzlies face off today at 3:00 p.m. EST.
