Who will LA Clippers face in NBA playoffs? Matchup with Warriors set

Kawhi Leonard and theL.A. Clippersmanaged to reach the postseason despite a slow start to the season.

The Clippers finished out the regular season with a 42-40 record after a 6-21 start to the season.

L.A. managed to weather the storm before even trading key starters such as James Harden and Ivica Zubac.

The Clippers added Darius Garland and Bennedict Mathurin from theCleveland Cavaliers, and Isaiah Jackson from theIndiana Pacers.

Leonard also raised his level of play during the season and began to gather MVP award consideration. Leonard averaged 27.9 points, 6.4 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game in 65 games played.

Leonard's health might be in question for the play-in game, however, after being unavailable for the Clippers' regular-season finale due to an ankle injury on April 12.

Even without Leonard, the Clippers closed out the regular season with a115-110win over theGolden State Warriors.

2026 Masters final round tee times, how to watch: Can Rory McIlroy win a second straight green jacket at Augusta National?

Well, the Masters is far from over.

Rory McIlroy and Cameron Young will enter Sunday’s final round at Augusta Nationallocked up at 11-under, which is a stunning turn of events after McIlroy’s historic lead on Friday night. McIlroy went from a six-shot advantage, which was the largest 36-hole lead in Masters history, to tied for the lead with 18 holes to go.

McIlroy went 1-over on Saturday while making three bogeys and a double throughout his round. Young, who is currently No. 3 in the Official World Golf Rankings, matched the round of the week with his 7-under 65 on Saturday. He went from eight shots back starting the day to a co-leader.

The duo will tee off in the final group at 2:25 p.m. ET on Sunday. Sam Burns and Shane Lowry will be in the penultimate group at 2:14 p.m. ET.

If McIlroy can hang on to grab the win, he’ll be just the fourth person to ever win the Masters in back-to-back years. But if he doesn’t claim another green jacket, he’ll be the first person to ever blow a six-shot lead at Augusta National. Either way, history will be made.
