BA Center, who missed past four games, has 22 points, seven rebounds as L.A. ends four-game skid.
As if things hadn't been going badly enough for the downtrodden New Jersey Nets, the Clippers got leading scorer Chris Kaman back just in time for Monday's game.
Kaman had 22 points and seven rebounds, and the Clippers snapped a four-game skid with an easy 106-95 victory at Staples Center.
The 7-foot center, who missed the previous four games with a sore lower back after being the only Clipper to play in each of the first 35 contests, played 30 minutes and made 10 of 16 shots.
"I just got tired of sitting out," Kaman said. "It was four games in five days, and I hadn't done any cardio or anything to get myself back in condition. The more games you miss, the harder it is to come back. So I made the decision to go. I worked with our muscle guy earlier today and it felt really good, so I thought I would take the chance."
