Betting on the Los Angeles Clippers
- Season record: 28-25
The Clippers’ season has had many ups and downs, but recently they have shown themselves to be a tough team to beat and one that will put up a good fight in the playoffs. However, that will always depend on the physical condition of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, who are currently healthy; still, they have been bothered by physical discomfort all year.
The Angeleno team is in the midst of a six-game road trip, which began with a remarkable win in Atlanta in which Leonard scored 32 points; however, they lost a few days later, without Leonard and George, to the Cavaliers, so now they will want to add a second win in a row after bouncing back against the Chicago Bulls last Tuesday.
The Clippers’ offensive struggles this campaign have been troubling, but they have looked much better in recent weeks, averaging 120.4 points in their last five games, while giving up an average of 109.6 points against during the same period.
Betting on the Milwaukee Bucks
- Season record: 33-17
The Bucks, who were shipwrecked by a sea of abnormalities in early January, have experienced a similar awakening in subsequent weeks. However, they have regained their lost pace and quality thanks to Jrue Holiday’s and Giannis Antetokounmpo’s returns, in particular.
After defeating the Charlotte Hornets at home on Tuesday, the Bucks will now try to record a sixth win in a row and eighth in nine games played. During that stretch, the Bucks have not only looked solid on defense, but also great on offense, scoring at least 130 points in six of their previous eight games.
The main reason for that performance has been the Greek, Giannis Antetokounmpo, who has scored at least 29 points since returning to action. In this way, he remains the offensive leader of his team with an average of 31.7 points scored per game, in addition to an average of 5.3 assists and 12.0 rebounds.
JefeBet Prediction
The Clippers are one of the most reliable teams in the league thanks to Leonard and George, but they are not without flaws. For example, they have struggled to play strong defense when they are away from home, giving up an average of 115.1 points per game. If they don’t want to struggle against a hot home offense, they will need to improve this statistic.
The Clippers will also have to prove here that they can also work well on offense against a solid Bucks defense, which at home averages 111.9 points against per game.
The Bucks have covered the spread in 18 of their 26 home games this campaign, so while we expect this to be an entertaining matchup, we’re confident it will be the Antetokounmpo-led side that comes away with the win in the end.
Prediction: Milwaukee Bucks Spread.
