Clippers' Jamal Crawford: Scores game-high 28 in Saturday's win

Crawford scored 28 points (8-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 9-9 FT) while adding three assists, two rebounds and two steals in 25 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 108-95 win over the Jazz.

Analysis:

The Clippers' bench actually outscored their starters 56-52 in this one, with Crawford leading the way in a huge win that not only clinched a playoff spot for the team but put them just a half-game behind Utah for the fourth seed in the Western Conference and home court advantage in the first round. The 37-year-old is headed for his worst scoring average since 2002-03, but Crawford stepped up Saturday and scored 20 or more points for the first time since he dropped 25 on the Bulls back on March 4.
