Clippers Celebrate Their ‘Dunngeon’ Defense After Taking 2-1 Series Lead Over Nuggets

The Los Angeles Clippers are celebrating the defensive identity that has propelled them to a 2-1 series lead in their NBA playoff matchup against the Denver Nuggets. In a recent Instagram post, the team shared a “DUNNGEON APPRECIATION POST 🔒” highlighting their formidable point/shooting guard Kris Dunn, who has become a cornerstone of their postseason success.

This playoff run marks a significant milestone for the Clippers in the Intuit Dome.

A New Era In Clipper Basketball

This playoff run represents a new chapter for the Los Angeles Clippers franchise. The Clippers began playing in Los Angeles in 1984 after relocating from San Diego, and the team has often lived in the shadow of the more storied Los Angeles Lakers.

However, the 2024-25 playoffs mark the first postseason action in their brand-new Intuit Dome, which opened as the team’s exclusive home after years of sharing the Crypto.com Arena (formerly Staples Center) with the Lakers.

As the series continues, the Clippers will look up to their “Dunngeon” to maintain their advantage as they potentially advance further in the playoff bracket.
