LOS ANGELES (AP) Luke Kennard scored 23 points, tying his career high with six 3-pointers, and Los Angeles ran away early to beat the Portland Trail Blazers 116-86 for the Clippers' first win of the season on Monday night.

"If I make two or three in a row, I'm really looking to be aggressive the next shot or two," Kennard said. "Guys were looking for me, especially in the transition. That's where I try to sneak around the defense."

Reggie Jackson added 18 points and Paul George had 16 points to help the Clippers avoid their first 0-3 start since 2010-11, when coach Vinny Del Negro was in his first season.
