Betting on the Los Angeles Clippers
- Regular Season Record: 30-26
Getting their two main stars back together on the court was all the Los Angeles Clippers needed to ignite this campaign. After Kawhi Leonard and Paul George came back, the team achieved good results that helped it climb to fourth place in the Western Conference.
This will be the last of a six-game away series for Los Angeles, which so far has won three of the games it has played. They lost only by a score of 122-99 to the Cavaliers in a game in which Kawhi was rested and George was also out, and to the Bucks by a tight 106-105.
Despite having good offensive players, the Clippers are averaging the third-fewest points per game in the league this campaign at 111.0, but they compensate for it with a solid defense (the eighth best in the NBA in defensive rating at 113.8).
Betting on the Brooklyn Nets
- Regular Season Record: 32-20
The Brooklyn Nets continue to live their lives without Kevin Durant, who is injured, and without Kyrie Irving, who has not seen action after suffering physical discomfort playing against the Celtics on February 1. So now, he is ruled out for the match.
This could send their fourth-place finish in the Eastern Conference into a tailspin. Their last game, which was a 125–123 win over the Wizards, shows that the team is going to suffer from here until their stars get back safe and sound. So, other players will have to pick up the slack while Irving and Durant are out.
The one to stand up against Washington was Cam Thomas: he scored 44 points, grabbed six rebounds, and dished out five assists. Thus, the Nets will hope to have his support again in this matchup against an opponent that will not be easy for them to face.
JefeBet Prediction
Without Durant and Irving, it looks difficult for the Brooklyn Nets to overcome the Clippers’ defense, which has been nearly impenetrable throughout the campaign. New York has good players who could have good performances, but we don’t think that will be enough.
Given this, the Nets’ focus will have to be on the defensive side of the court, which could be a good argument to slow down a Clippers team that has not looked entirely sharp offensively this season. Of course Kawhi and George will play, but if not them, there are no other players who can provide outstanding offensive contributions.
Prediction: Under.
