When the Clippers played and defeated the Philadelphia 76ers 127-91 on Saturday, it marked the first time the Clippers had two days between games in nearly a month. The days allowed the Clippers to get in their first practice since Dec. 5. It was a good thing, point guard Chris Paul said.

“It definitely helped,” Paul, who had 24 points, 12 assists and eight rebounds, said post-game. “We had a good practice (Friday) and the rest really helps. I think today we felt like we had our legs under us a little bit more.”
