Clippers at Jazz picks and predictions
Prediction
Clippers 116, Jaz 112
Moneyline
The Clippers still took down the Trail Blazers Tuesday despite George and Leonard missing the game. They are now 2-3 with both players out of the lineup.
However, the Jazz are struggling and have lost 8 of their last 10 games after a 10-3 start to the season.
L.A. is 6-4 on the road and Utah is 6-3 at home.
This is a perfect night to look for an upset road win and a nice payout.
BET CLIPPERS (+225).
Against the spread
If you are already placing a wager on the Clippers to win the game outright, an ATS wager doesn’t make much sense.
But the Clippers are only 11-11 ATS this season, although they have covered the spread in 2 straight games and in 4 of their last 6.
The Jazz are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games.
PASS.
Over/Under
The Clippers have the lowest-scoring offense in the league, averaging 107.0 points per game, but they have scored 114 or more in their last 4 victories and in 7 of their last 8 wins.
The Jazz allow 115.5 points per game while scoring 116.7.
BET OVER 224.5 (-105).
