Los Angeles Clippers vs. Chicago Bulls: Starting Lineups & Injury Report

The Los Angeles Clippers will come into the Chicago Bulls' building on a six-game winning streak. While the Western Conference squad has undoubtedly benefitted from a friendly schedule, they deserve credit for taking care of business. The Clippers recorded the NBA's fifth-highest net rating during this stretch, as they have proven particularly stout on the defensive end. Speaking of which, the Bulls will have their work cut out for them against one of the more formidable frontcourts in the NBA. Ivica Zubac is a reigning All-Defensive team member, while Brook Lopez brings plenty of experience and physicality off the bench. For a Bulls team that has feasted at the rim all season long, finding a familiar rhythm could prove to be a challenge in this one. Indeed, let's also not fail to consider that the Clippers rank second-to-last in PACE. Chicago has struggled all season long when games are brought into the halfcourt.
