LA Clippers vs NY Knicks Prediction

The Knicks have been hit or miss over the last month, and they’re at the end of a back-to-back. These are spots where undermanned teams feel it the most, and of course, the Knicks are still without Brunson. The Clippers have played their best ball of the season over the last few weeks, and that includes wins in eight of their last 10 games and a 7-3 ATS record during that span. One of those losses was a two-point game against the Thunder. With the rest advantage and their current form, it’s hard to step in front of the Clippers. This is a tough schedule spot for the Knicks given their injury situation. I’ll lay the bucket with the Clippers on the road.
