The Los Angeles Clippers edged out the Golden State Warriors 115-110 in a thrilling finale to the 2025-26 NBA regular season on Sunday night at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California. The victory secured the ninth seed in the Western Conference for the Clippers, setting up an immediate rematch in the 2026 NBA Play-In Tournament on Wednesday.
The high-stakes matchup featured strong individual performances on both sides. Coming off the bench, Bennedict Mathurin delivered a standout all-around game for the Clippers with 20 points, 8 assists, and 9 rebounds. His versatility sparked LA’s second-half surge and helped control the tempo against a Warriors team fighting for positioning.
Darius Garland added 15 points in a solid contribution, providing steady playmaking and scoring as the Clippers (finishing the regular season at 42-40) locked down the critical win. The home crowd at the state-of-the-art Intuit Dome was electric, roaring as LA pulled ahead in the fourth quarter.
On the Warriors’ side, Stephen Curry once again shouldered the offensive load, finishing with 24 points. Despite his efficient shooting and trademark range, Curry received little support from his teammates as Golden State fell to 37-45 and the 10th seed in the West.
The Clippers’ balanced attack and defensive intensity in the closing minutes proved decisive. They outscored the Warriors 32-29 in the final period to seal the victory and clinch home-court advantage in the upcoming play-in game.
With this result, the Clippers earn the ninth seed and will host the 10th-seeded Warriors again on Wednesday, April 15, 2026, in the Western Conference play-in tournament. The winner of that matchup advances to face the loser of the 7-8 seed game, with a chance to secure a spot in the 2026 NBA Playoffs.
The stage is set for another intense battle between these longtime rivals at the Intuit Dome. Clippers fans will be hoping Mathurin’s bench spark, Garland’s poise, and the home energy can carry them into the postseason.
