Jones collapsed to the ground after a collision, clutching his right knee.\n\nIn the play, Jones was trying to reach a loose ball and collided with Jaylen Brown of Boston. Brown&#8217;s arm hit Jones&#8217; leg. Brown was called for a foul on the play.\n\nInjuries are piling up for the Clippers. Kawhi Leonard missed his seventh straight game with a sprained ankle and foot, and Bradley Beal suffered a hip fracture that will keep him out for the season on November 8th.\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>It&#8217;s tough.
