76ers at Clippers: Odds, lines, predictions and picks
Prediction
Clippers 111, 76ers 104
Money line (ML)
The CLIPPERS (-190) are a little expensive, and the health of Leonard is a concern here. That’s why I like the money line better than playing the spread. Even if Kawhi is unable to go, the Clips are a decent play on their home court.

Against the spread (ATS)
We get a battle of cover kings here, as the CLIPPERS -4.5 (-110) have cashed in four in a row, while the 76ers +4.5 (-110) are an impressive 12-3-1 ATS across the past 16 games.
While there is a concern with Leonard being listed as questionable for Saturday, we already know Embiid is sidelined for the Sixers. Back the Clips, but do it lightly.
Over/Under (O/U)
The UNDER 222.5 (-110) is the best play on the board here, cashing in five of the past six games overall for Philadelphia, including a low-scoring 109-101 win over the banged-up Lakers in this very same building on Thursday. The Under is also 4-0 in the previous four on the road for Philly.
As far as the Clips, the Under has hit in five of the past seven against winning teams, and the Under is 3-0-1 in the past four at home against teams with a winning mark on the road.
