As the Clippers’ flight on Friday was en route to Minnesota, the question of whether their prized new addition, Marcus Morris, will play Saturday also remained up in the air. Though the team did not rule out Morris to play against Minnesota, it was considered a challenge for him to be ready. The Clippers will play eight games between Saturday and that deadline and will use the time to reevaluate their needs. But for a Clippers roster whose players have acknowledged often lackadaisical play, it could be a boost. … Since missing all five of his three-pointers Jan. 12 against Denver, Clippers guard Landry Shamet has made 43.7% of his three-pointers in his last 11 games while averaging 7.9 attempts.
