Betting on the Los Angeles Clippers
- Regular Season Record: 23-23
The Los Angeles Clippers have had a busy week of games that have not boosted their confidence at all. Without Paul George, the team has had a string of bad results that do not suit them because of the tightness of the overall Western Conference standings in the area where they are located.
However, PG-13 looks to return to action in this game, which will give a break to this squad as it seeks to improve its offensive numbers. This is because they have the second-worst average in this area (109.4 points).
The Clippers’ strength lies in defense, as they are currently the third-best team in this area, with an average of 110.1 units received per night.
Betting on the San Antonio Spurs
- Regular Season Record: 14-31
One of the worst teams so far in the Western Conference, the San Antonio Spurs, managed to take a breath of fresh air after putting an end to a five-game losing streak and beating the Brooklyn Nets, an opponent that was without its two most important stars.
The Spurs limited the Nets to 98 points in this matchup. But this fluke is more likely to be due to the opponent’s lack of firepower on offense, as San Antonio owns the worst average defense at 121.2 points per game.
The intention for this new duel is to take advantage of the emotional boost that a win against a rival like Brooklyn gives to improve their dismal record, which continues to be equally deplorable when playing at home, a scenario in which they have won just 9 games and lost 15.
JefeBet Prediction
If Los Angeles can get their leading scorer back for this game, the chances of a good result would increase dramatically. The home team has evidenced a series of weaknesses throughout the campaign that are even more noticeable when they face a moderately strong opponent.
The Clippers’ defensive solidity may be more than enough to neutralize San Antonio, who also do not possess much strength on offense. Therefore, the visitors are expected to improve their road record when they face one of the weakest teams so far this regular season.
Prediction: Los Angeles Clippers Spread.
