The Los Angeles Clippers are averaging 115 points on 44.1 percent shooting and allowing 110 points on 47.6 percent shooting. Kawhi Leonard is averaging 38 points and 5 rebounds, while Eric Gordon is averaging 19 points and 1 rebound. Norman Powell is the third double-digit scorer and Ivica Zubac is grabbing 15 rebounds.

The Clippers are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 games playing on 1 days rest and 7-3 ATS in their last 10 Tuesday games. The Suns are 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games playing on 1 days rest and 3-7-1 ATS in their last 11 games following a ATS loss. The over is 4-0-1 in Clippers last 5 overall. The over is 3-0-1 in Suns last 4 overall. The Clippers are 5-2 ATS in the last 7 meetings in Phoenix.

The Phoenix Suns should be big favorites at home, where this is pretty much a must win after dropping game 1. However, the Clippers and free points are hard to turn down given Kawhi is on the floor, and you can argue their depth is better than the Suns. The Los Angeles Clippers will be underdogs of 7 or more points for just the fifth time this season, and they managed to win game 1 despite Westbrook doing nothing scoring wise. Lots of points. Give me the Clippers again to at least cover.
