Clippers at Suns picks and predictions
Prediction
Suns 117, Clippers 113
Moneyline
BET SUNS (-170).
The Suns have won 2 of their last 3, all on their home floor, while allowing 104 or fewer in both wins. They face a Clippers team that is dealing with key injuries and has performed poorly on the road (0-4). The Clippers are also playing on the back half of a back-to-back and are 0-1 in such games this season.
Against the spread
PASS.
The Clippers +3 (-110) are 5-4 ATS this season, while the Suns -3.5 (-110) are just 2-7 ATS. The Clippers have covered in back-to-back games as favorites, with their last loss coming by just 1 point, making a 3.5-point spread a risky play in either direction.
Over/Under
BET OVER 224.5 (-110).
The Clippers have scored at least 112 points in each of their last 4 games, while allowing at least 124 in 4 of their last 5 and at least 117 in each of their last 5. They have hit the Over in 4 of their last 5 and have a 5-4 Over record.
The Suns are also 5-4 O/U. They have scored at least 113 in 6 of their last 8, while allowing at least 116 in 7 of their 9 games this season. They have hit the Over in 3 of their 6 at home.
