Wizards at Clippers picks and predictions
Prediction
Clippers 122, Wizards 103
Moneyline
PASS.
The Clippers (-1100) will get a much needed win at home Thursday night, but I can’t bet 11 units to win 1. Bet the spread and/or total instead.
Against the spread
BET CLIPPERS -14.5 (-110).
The Clippers are really feeling the absence of some key players, which has made their performance pretty hit-or-miss. Still, even with a shorthanded roster, they should be able to take down the Wizards Thursday night. The Clippers have been solid at home, winning 6 out of their last 7 games. Plus, they boast one of the top defenses in the league, giving up just 106.6 points per game, ranking 3rd in the NBA.
On the flip side, the Wizards are on a rough patch, having lost 11 games in a row. Their last road win was way back on Oct. 28, and that’s been their only victory away from home this season. They’re currently in the middle of a 6-game road trip and must be feeling pretty worn out and defeated as they try to get through this tough season.
In short, even the backup Clippers should have the upper hand against the Wizards’ starting lineup.
Over/Under
I’m not a fan of this total. The trends aren’t convincing enough for me to place this bet. In their last 10 meetings, the O/U has gone 6-4. Washington has gone 5-5 O/U in its last 10 games, while LA has also gone 6-4 O/U in its last 10. The Clippers have solid defense, but the Wizards? Not so much. It’s tough to decide, so I think I’ll just AVOID the bet.
