Harkless tallied 12 points (5-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt), seven rebounds, an assist and a steal over 34 minutes in Wednesday’s 102-81 Game 2 loss to the Clippers.

The four-year pro got back into double figures scoring-wise for the first time in four games, and was able to drain a pair of three-pointers after coming up empty in Game 1 of the series. Harkless’ minutes also saw a nice boost up from the 21 he received in the postseason opener, and he had an appreciably greater presence on the glass than in Game 1 on Sunday. Harkless figures to continue having his hands full down low versus Blake Griffin for the remainder of the series, although he did a solid job Wednesday in helping to limit the Clippers All-Star to 12 points on 4-of-12 shooting.
