Toronto Raptors vs LA Clippers Prediction
The LA Clippers are going to get the benefit of the doubt at home, but they’re on the end of a back-to-back and still dealing with injuries. This is a spot where the Clippers could struggle. The Toronto Raptors have injuries of their own, and they’re not winning games, but they’re 7-2 ATS on the season and that’s all we care about in this line of work. The Raptors have covered 8 of their last 10 games overall. Until the tickets stop cashing I’ll keep riding with the Raptors. Give me the road dog.
