Betting on the Los Angeles Clippers
- Regular Season Record: 33-28
All seems to indicate that coach Ty Lue plans to use Russell Westbrook as a starter alongside Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, Marcus Morris and Ivica Zubac for this game against the Nuggets.
Of course, Westbrook’s arrival has generated all sorts of buzz around the league, and it will be absolutely fascinating to see how this story ends up unfolding, as the Clippers certainly became one of the most followed and exciting teams in the league after this move.
Betting on the Denver Nuggets
- Regular Season Record: 42-18
The Nuggets have won four games in a row (not including Saturday’s win over the Grizzlies), and they continue to comfortably dominate the West.
Nikola Jokic seems to be in line for another MVP title, having maintained an average of a triple-double over his last 10 games, averaging 22.9 points, 14.8 rebounds, and 11.6 assists during that period. He also averaged 64.8% shooting from the field and 50% three-point shooting.
Denver has been relentless at home with a record of 27 wins and 4 losses, so Kawhi Leonard and the rest of the squad will have to face a tough opponent this Sunday.
JefeBet Prediction
The Nuggets have defeated the Clippers in all three previous meetings this season, and all of those wins were by 10 points or more.
Although the Clippers got reinforced with Russell Westbrook, at JefeBet we believe that it will not be enough to defeat the relentless Nuggets, especially at home, where we have already seen that they are almost invincible.
Prediction: Denver Nuggets Moneyline.
