Clippers at Bucks: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Clippers 115, Bucks 110
Money line (ML)
The CLIPPERS (+100) are the value play as Los Angeles has won seven of its last 10 games with the only losses coming against the Brooklyn Nets, Memphis Grizzlies and Utah Jazz. They’ve also been a fantastic road team this season, winning 12 of 17 games away from Staples Center.
The Bucks are on a four-game winning streak, but the quality of opponents in those games has been low. Expect this game to be close, but for the Clippers to pull off the upset.

Against the spread (ATS)
CLIPPERS +1.5 (-110) is the lean as the Bucks have struggled mightily against the spread of late. They’ve failed to cover in six of their last nine games. Meanwhile, the Clippers have been just the opposite, covering in six of their last nine games.
The Clippers have had a lot of success recently against the Bucks, going 4-1-1 against the spread in their last six meetings.
Over/Under (O/U)
UNDER 232.5 (-105) is the best play as these are two of the best and most athletic defenses in the NBA. Both sides are incredibly long and fast on the wings, making it difficult for shooters to feel comfortable.
Both teams have top-six offenses so expect some scoring, but look for the Under to hit in Milwaukee.
