Prediction
Clippers 121, Spurs 109
Moneyline (ML)
The Clippers (-239) are just too expensive risking more than two times the return, and the Spurs (+190) cannot be trusted, even though they're at home. Play the spread instead.
New to sports betting? A $10 bet on the Clippers to win outright returns a profit of just $4.18. In other words, every $2.39 wagered on the Clippers ML would profit $1 if they win.
Line/Against the Spread (ATS)
The CLIPPERS ( -5.5, -115) have connected in four of the past five games on the road, and they're 6-2 ATS in the past eight games as a favorite. In addition, they're 22-10 ATS in the past 32 as a road favorite.
The Spurs (+5.5, -106) are 9-2 ATS in the past 11 as a home 'dog, but they're just 6-17 ATS in the past 23 overall at home. In addition, they have posted a dismal 8-18-1 ATS mark in the past 27 games, while going 1-7 ATS in the past eight following a cover and 4-17 ATS in the past 21 after a straight-up win.
Over/Under (O/U)
I'm not in love with the OVER 227.5 ( -106) play, but it's worth a small-unit wager. The Over is 9-3 in L.A.'s past 12 as a road favorite and 5-2 in the past seven overall for San Antonio.
