LA Clippers vs Phoenix Suns Prediction

The Phoenix Suns have quietly won seven of their last 10 games, but the bulk of those wins have come against teams like the Nets, Wizards, and Hornets. Until proven otherwise, I’ll continue to say the Suns aren’t a good team. Also, the Suns are still the worst cover team in the league, with a 34.8 cover percentage. The LA Clippers are as healthy as they’ve been all season with the return of Kawhi, and they’ve won six of their last eight games. I just need to see the Suns have success against good teams before I can jump on board. A cover or two would be nice as well. There’s also the weird thing between Jusuf Nurkic and Mike Budenholzer that’s spilling over to the media. While he’s not great, Nurkic is one of the few big options. The Suns have no post presence. I just don’t get great vibes from the Suns right now. Give me the Clippers.
