Kawhi Leonard’s team defeated the Detroit Pistons 112-099 to break the Los Angeles Clippers record for most points in a game.

His 55-point haul is also a career high for the 34-year-old, who set a record set by team-mate James Harden last month.

The Clippers’ best run of the season came with the addition of Harden with 28 points and Batum with 12 as they secured their fourth straight win.

The Los Angeles Lakers’ 125-101 victory over the Sacramento Kings was also a positive step for their three-game losing streak.

Before leaving the game with a back injury midway through the fourth quarter, Doncic hit five three-pointers on his way to 34 points. James added 24 points.

With 5:43 remaining, the 40-year-old collided with Kings guard DeMar DeRozan and was forced to leave the court.

The Portland Trailblazers, the Washington Wizards, and the Toronto Raptors all won on Sunday.
