The San Diego Clippers will play their last two home games at Frontwave Arena for the 2024-2025 season this week.

The San Diego Clippers (12-17) will play the Rio Grande Valley Vipers (15-13) twice at home on Tuesday and Thursday night at Frontwave Arena at 7 p.m. PT.

Both teams have lost three games in a row. The Clippers lost their two consecutive home games against the Mexico City Capitanes on Friday and Sunday night, respectively. The Vipers lost two consecutive road games against the South Bay Lakers on Wednesday and Friday night.
