Injury Report: LA Clippers vs Houston Rockets /

It's been said before, but it'll be said again - no team in the NBA needs a win more than the LA Clippers. The team is relatively healthy against the Houston Rockets tonight, but that hasn't seemed to matter as of late.

The Clippers have three players listed on their injury report: Brandon Boston, Kobe Brown, and Mason Plumlee. Brandon Boston remains out with left quadriceps tendinopathy which he's been dealing with since day one of the preseason. Kobe Brown is out due to being in the G League. Mason Plumlee is out due to a left MCL sprain that will keep him out for around two months after Julius Randle tackled his leg.

The Houston Rockets only have two players listed on their injury report: Victor Oladipo and Amen Thompson. Victor Oladipo is out due to left patellar tendon repair, and Amen Thompson is out due to a right ankle sprain.

If there's one thing the Clippers really need to pay attention to, it's the fact that these Rockets aren't the same ones as last season. Houston is currently on a six-game winning streak while the Clippers are on a six-game losing streak. While the Clippers may be the most desperate team in the NBA, the Houston Rockets are one of the hottest right now.

The LA Clippers and Houston Rockets tip off tonight at 10:30 p.m. EST.
