The 59-point win by the Clippers marked the largest in the franchise’s 55-year history, and the largest out of the 597 games played in the NBA this season. It was also the worst loss in the 58-year history of the Nets, a franchise that entered the NBA in 1976 and started in 1967 in the ABA.

The Clippers began on Wednesday night a slew of games in which their fortitude was expected to be tested. They are in this situation because of the devastating wildfires that rampaged across the Los Angeles area and caused the postponement of a Clippers game and forced the NBA to reschedule other games.

Tuesday’s matchup between the Chicago Bulls and Los Angeles Clippers was one of eight games the NBA rescheduled due to the Southern California wildfires. The Bulls originally were scheduled to play the Clippers at Intuit Dome on Tuesday night.

The NBA rescheduled two games postponed due to catastrophic wildfires in Southern California, as well as a game postponed due to a winter storm in Atlanta.
