Clippers at Thunder odds, lines, picks and predictions
Prediction
Clippers 107, Thunder 99
Money line
The Clippers are only 4-6 on the road this season but the Thunder are 4-10 at home and have the worst overall record in the Western Conference.
The Thunder have lost 11 of their last 13 games, and while they offer a good payout at +190 it’s because they’re unlikely to win.
Take the CLIPPERS (-240).
Against the spread
The Clippers are only 13-16 ATS overall but have covered the spread in four of their last seven games.
The Thunder have performed well against the spread at 16-11 ATS. They are 3-5 ATS in their last eight games but had a stretch where they covered in 11 of 13 games. They lost by 19 or more points in two of the three games on their homestand.
Take the CLIPPERS -5.5 (-115).
Over/Under
The Clippers are 13-16 O/U this season and only two of their last six games have hit the Over.
Thunder are 11-16 O/U but five of their last seven, and eight of their last 12, games have gone Over the projected total.
The Clippers only allow 104.9 points per game and the Thunder have scored fewer than 100 points in five of their last nine games.
Take UNDER 209.5 (-107).
