Thunder at Clippers: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Clippers 121, Thunder 104
Money line (ML)
The Clippers (-900) are going to get the win just like they did in Friday’s front end of the double dip 120-106. But you cannot risk nine times your potential return in a single game. It’s just not worth the stress. AVOID and look to the spread instead.
Against the spread (ATS)
The CLIPPERS -13.5 (-110) scratched out a narrow cover Friday, hitting a 13.5-point number with a 14-point victory. The first-place Clips have won six straight and have covered four in a row. Look for both streaks to continue.
Over/Under (O/U)
OVER 221.5 (-110) has been the rule lately in Clippers games, cashing in five of the previous six outings, including Friday’s 226 total points against a 221.5 number. OKC isn’t as prolific offensively, but it has been holding its own lately, and it rolls in on a 4-0 Over run.
The Thunder enter play 22nd in the NBA with 113.1 PPG allowed. The Clippers are No. 1 in both 3-point percentage (43.3%), and free-throw percentage (84.5%). They’re sixth in defensive scoring average at 107.7 PPG, but they also have pumped in 115.2 PPG on offense to rank sixth in the league. We’ll see plenty of points.
