Los Angeles Clippers Betting Preview
The Los Angeles Clippers have cooled off a bit recently as they’ve dropped three of their past four games. They will be hoping for a better effort after getting trounced by the red-hot Thunder in a 126-107 home defeat on Tuesday. James Harden led the team with 25 points and six assists, John Collins added 17 points off the bench while Derrick Jones Jr chipped in with 16 points.
As a team, the Clippers shot just 41 percent from the field and 18 of 43 from the 3-point line as they got off to a solid start and took a 13-point lead. They got dominated by 70-50 in the second half where they fell behind by as many as 25 points at one stage. The Clippers struggled for offense without Kawhi Leonard in the lineup and they needed more from players like Nicolas Batum who scored just three points on one of five shooting.
Phoenix Suns Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Phoenix Suns were starting to build some momentum with a couple of wins in a row before they got stopped in their tracks by the Warriors in a 118-107 road defeat on Tuesday. Devin Booker led the team with 38 points and four assists on 13 of 24 shooting, Grayson Allen and Mark Williams each scored 16 points, while Ryan Dunn chipped in with 10 points.
As a team, the Suns shot 44 percent from the field and 12 of 33 from the 3-point line as they struggled to match the Warriors early on. They didn’t really put up any fight until the Warriors’ Jimmy Butler went down with injury, which allowed them to go on a little run to cut a 25-point deficit to single digits at one stage.

Suns vs Clippers Prediction
The Clippers have already ruled out James Harden and Kawhi Leonard, while the Suns will again be without Jalen Green and Dillon Brooks. The Clippers could really do with a win to get back on track after getting humbled in their last outing, but they’re going to find it tough to score without their two leading scorers. The Suns haven’t been a team to depend on this season, but they were building nicely with a couple wins before they ran into the Warriors. You couldn’t back either side with too much confidence, but in what is a pick ’em, I am leaning towards the Suns to get the job done at home.
