The Oklahoma City Thunder and Los Angeles Clippers meet Friday in NBA action at the Staples Center.

The Oklahoma City Thunder need a win after losing three of their last four games. The Oklahoma City Thunder are averaging 105.6 points on 44.6 percent shooting and allowing 112.6 points on 46 percent shooting. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is averaging 21 points and 5.3 rebounds while Luguentz Dort is averaging 13.4 points and 3.9 rebounds. Al Horford is the third double-digit scorer and Hamidou Diallo is grabbing five rebounds. The Oklahoma City Thunder are shooting 33 percent from beyond the arc and 71.9 percent from the free throw line. The Oklahoma City Thunder are allowing 35.6 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 44.7 rebounds per game.

The Los Angeles Clippers look to stay hot while building on their five-game winning streak. The Los Angeles Clippers are averaging 114.9 points on 48.6 percent shooting and allowing 107.8 points on 46.8 percent shooting. Kawhi Leonard is averaging 24.9 points and 4.9 rebounds while Paul George is averaging 24.4 points and 6.2 rebounds.

The Thunder are 12-5 ATS in their last 17 Friday games and 6-2 ATS in their last 8 road games. The over is 4-1 in Thunder last 5 overall. The over is 4-1 in Clippers last 5 overall. The under is 4-0 in the last 4 meetings in Los Angeles and 5-1 in the last 6 meetings.

The Los Angeles Clippers are a tough team to figure out, as their effort seems to change from game to game, but they are coming off three straight blowout victories and it could be a sign of turning the corner. The Oklahoma City Thunder have gotten beat up this season against above average competition, and they're still at the bottom of the league in offensive production. I don't love it, but I'm going to buy into what the Clippers have done this week. I'll lay the chalk.
