Boston Celtics vs Los Angeles Clippers prediction

I’m assuming this line is what it is because Kawhi Leonard is questionable with a hip issue. Even so, I’m taking the Clippers at home in this near prick em spot. The Los Angeles Clippers are playing their best ball of the season right now, and the offense has come together and is putting up nice numbers. All six of the Celtics losses this year have come on the road, and Jayson Tatum is questionable with an ankle issue. Give me the Clippers regardless of the status of the two stars.
