Los Angeles Clippers Betting Preview
The Los Angeles Clippers have been in a major slump as they’ve lost nine of their last 11 games overall, but they will be feeling much better after snapping a three-game skid with a 131-116 road win over the Hornets last night. James Harden drained 10 3-pointers to lead the team with 55 points on 17 of 26 shooting, Ivica Zubac added 18 points on nine of 12 shooting while Brook Lopez chipped in with 11 points off the bench.
As a team, the Clippers shot 51 percent from the field and 19 of 43 from the 3-point line as they set the tone with 38 points in the first quarter to take a narrow lead into halftime. Before they went on a pivotal 19-4 run in the third quarter to pull ahead and come away with the much-needed win.
Cleveland Cavaliers Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Cleveland Cavaliers have been in fine form as they’ve won four of their last six games overall and they will be eager to keep it going after beating the Pacers in a 120-109 home win on Friday. Donovan Mitchell led the team with 32 points, nine rebounds and five assists on 11 of 22 shooting, Evan Mobley added 22 points with 12 rebounds and four assists while Darius Garland and De’Andre Hunter each scored 20 points.
As a team, the Cavaliers shot 48 percent from the field and 13 of 35 from the 3-point line as they got off to a decent start. However, they could barely get any separation from the pesky Pacers until the third quarter where they poured in 38 points to take a 22-point lead, which allowed them to rest some starters early.

LA Clippers vs Cleveland Cavaliers Prediction
The Clippers are still missing some key players with Kawhi Leonard, Bradley Beal and Derrick Jones Jr out, while the Cavaliers are still missing Jarrett Allen, Lonzo Ball, Sam Merrill and Max Strus. The Clippers looked great in last night’s big win over the Hornets, but they were really struggling before that win and it’s hard to get too excited about beating one of the worst teams in the league. The Cavaliers have been one of the more consistent teams so far this season, but the injuries to their role players like Allen and Merrill has stopped them from really taking off so far. The Clippers are getting plenty of points here, but I am expecting a letdown performance on their second game of a back to back set, so I will take the Cavaliers to take care of business at home.
