For the first time this season, the Clippers started Matt Barnes at small forward in place of the struggling Jared Dudley.

Clippers Coach Doc Rivers inserted Barnes into the lineup, and the veteran had 10 points on four-for-eight shooting plus five rebounds.

“Doc came to me early this [Monday] morning and said he wanted to make a switch,” Barnes said. “With this team, it’s about winning. If he felt switching that up was going to help us go, it’s good for the team.”
