Kings at Clippers picks and predictionsPrediction
Clippers 127, Kings 109
The Clippers are one of the hottest teams in the league right now, facing a team that is both struggling on the court and ravaged by injuries off of it.
When they last met in LA on Dec. 30, the Clippers won 131-90.
Sacramento’s 5-28 road record means you shouldn’t ever seriously consider them on the road to win, while -900 odds for the Clippers ML is bad value. Go with the spread.
PASS.
The Clippers are 5-2 ATS when favored by 10 or more, but the Kings are 3-2 ATS in the last 5 games in which they were double-digit underdogs.
The Clippers have not had consecutive ATS losses in their last 15 games. The Kings have covered the spread in 3 straight games — only the third time this season they have done that. They once had 4 consecutive ATS wins.
BET CLIPPERS -13.5 (-110).
The Over is 2-0 in the 2 meetings between the teams this season.
The Clippers have averaged 126.8 points per game over their last 8. If they keep that pace, the 109 or more the Kings have scored in each of their last 4 games will give you the Over easily.
BET OVER 231.5 (-110).
