OKLAHOMA CITY, Nov. 19 (UPI) -- Chris Kaman led a balanced attack with 25 points Wednesday, carrying the Los Angeles Clippers to a 108-88 blasting of Oklahoma City.

It was a meeting of the teams with the two worst records in the NBA. They brought a combined mark of 2-19 into the game.

Cuttino Mobley added 23 points and had seven steals for the Clippers, who ended a three-game losing streak. Al Thornton had 20 and both Marcus Camby and Baron Davis had 14.

Oklahoma City has dropped nine in a row since its lone win of the season, which came on Nov. 2 against Minnesota, which improved to 2-8 with a win over Philadelphia Wednesday.

Los Angeles trailed by three at halftime, but began the third quarter with a 16-8 run. After the Thunder closed within 65-62, the Clippers scored 12 consecutive points.

Oklahoma City led by as many as 13 in the second period.
