The Los Angeles Clippers clinched a playoff berth Saturday with their 108-95 victory over the Utah Jazz.
It marks the sixth straight postseason appearance for Los Angeles, which will attempt to make its first Western Conference finals in franchise history this spring.
The Clippers join the Golden State Warriors, San Antonio Spurs, and Houston Rockets as the Western teams to have clinched a playoff spot.
After getting off to a blistering 14-2 start this season, the Clippers have fallen back to mediocrity, going just 30-28 since.
As it stands now, Los Angeles would face Utah in the first round.
