LOS ANGELES — Clippers win, on three.

No. 1 – With 31.2 seconds left in the Clippers’ 115-109 victory, Nicolas Batum’s go-ahead 3-pointer gave his team a 111-109 lead.

No. 2 – L.A.’s swarming defense thwarted Washington’s shot at a tie when Kristaps Porzingis missed a 10-footer with 17.7 seconds left.

No. 3 – Reggie Jackson rebounded the miss and drew a foul with 12.3 seconds left, stepping to the free-throw line for the first time in Wednesday’s victory – notable not just because he extended the lead to 113-109, but because it gave the crowd of 15,282 an opportunity to chant “Reg-gie, Reg-gie” and to be rewarded with packages of the promotional “thank you” PB&J Bites packages that came with their outpouring of support.

With the victory at Crytpo.com Arena, the Clippers (35-33) snapped a two-game losing streak – and extended their home winning streak against the Wizards to 14 games – a new franchise record.

It was a competitive contest throughout, with 10 ties and 20 lead changes. Neither team led by more than 10 points.

Trailing 109-106 with two minutes left, the Clippers took advantage of some miscommunication between new teammates, Porzingis missing Kyle Kuzma with a pass to give the ball back.

Following a timeout, Marcus Morris Sr. drew a shooting foul and made both free throws – just the Clippers’ eighth and ninth of the night – to bring them within 109-108 with 1:03 left.

After Kentavious Caldwell-Pope’s shot was short, the shot clock expired on Washington, giving the Clippers the ball (after a review to ensure his shot didn’t hit the rim) with 39 seconds left.

The next time down, Batum buried the back-breaking shot.

When it was over, the Clippers had ended the game on an 11-0 run and held Washington scoreless over the last 2:37.

Wizards coach Wes Unseld Jr. said before tipoff he hadn’t gotten over the “terrible feeling” Washington experienced after the Clippers’ 35-point comeback on Jan. 25, when Luke Kennard scored seven points in the final nine seconds to punctuate the second-largest rally in NBA history.

Kennard found new ways to get to Washington on Wednesday, when he not only buried shots from deep – finishing 4 for 7 from behind the arc – but attacking the rim once and hitting a couple of jumpers inside the arc. He shot 7 for 12 overall for 19 points.

Jackson needed only one quarter to outdo his entire five-point scoring output in Tuesday’s loss at Golden State. On Wednesday, he scored eight of his game-high 31 points in the opening quarter.

Morris finished with 27 points on 10-for-15 shooting, plus eight rebounds and four assists and Ivica Zubac finished with 10 points and nine rebounds.

After starting the previous 10 games, Mann came off the bench Wednesday and chipped in with nine points, nine rebounds and three assists – including the one that set up Batum’s key 3-pointer.

The Clippers were on a two-game skid following Tuesday’s 112-97 road loss, when Batum scored 17 points but the remaining four starters combined for just 27 while the team shot a season-worst 35.5% – and 29.4% through three quarters.

Porzingis led Washington (29-35) with 19 points on 8-for-14 shooting in his second game with the team. In his Wizards’ debut in a victory over Indiana on Sunday, he had 25 points on 7-of-12 shooting, including a 3-for-4 showing from 3-point range.

The Clippers went into halftime with a 57-55 lead following a competitive first half in which the teams changed leads 10 times and were tied seven times.

Morris led L.A. at the break with 18 points on 7 for 9 shooting (2-2 from 3), plus seven rebounds and an assist.

A 16-5 spurt in the third period put the Wizards ahead, 85-75. But a mid-range jumper from Morris and back-to-back 3-pointers from Kennard got the Clippers back within two points.

With 9:38 to play, the Clippers pulled back ahead, 92-91, and the teeter-totter ride continued.
