The Los Angeles Clippers invade the Frost Bank Center to battle the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday night. Here’s a Spurs vs Clippers Prediction. This article will include a Spurs vs Clippers Pick.

Los Angeles Clippers

The Los Angeles Clippers have been in pretty good form as they’ve won six of their last nine games overall, but they will be eager to bounce back here after coming up painfully short to the Suns in a 111-109 road defeat on Monday. Ivica Zubac led the team with 25 points, 16 rebounds, and four assists, James Harden added 24 points with 10 assists while Norman Powell chipped in with 23 points. As a team, the Clippers shot 49 percent from the field and 10 of 32 from the 3-point line as they worked hard to cut an early 13-point deficit to just one point with 40.1 seconds remaining but they just couldn’t get over the hump. All five starters finished in double figures in scoring, but the bench combined for just eight points.

San Antonio Spurs

Meanwhile, the San Antonio Spurs have been in a slump as they’ve lost seven of their last nine games overall and they will be hoping for a better effort after getting embarrassed by the Pacers in a 136-98 loss in Paris on Saturday. Harrison Barnes led the team with 25 points on nine of 14 shooting, Victor Wembenyama added 20 points with 12 rebounds, Stephon Castle scored 17 points while Chris Paul chipped in with 11 points and eight assists. As a team, the Spurs shot just 41 percent from the field and 11 of 32 from the 3-point line as they struggled to match the urgency of the Pacers from the start and fought hard just to stay within striking distance until the fourth quarter where they got blown out by 38-12 to suffer one of their worst defeats of the season.

Why the San Antonio Spurs will win

  • The Spurs have won each of their last 10 games when playing with a rest advantage.
  • The Clippers have lost five of their last six road games.
  • The Spurs have covered the spread in each of their last seven games as underdogs when playing with a rest advantage.
  • The Clippers have failed to cover the spread in each of their last four games against Southwest Division opponents that held a losing record.

Why the Los Angeles Clippers will win

  • The Clippers have won each of their last 11 road games against Southwest Division opponents that held a losing record.
  • The Spurs have lost each of their last 36 Wednesday games against teams that held a winning record.
  • The Clippers have covered the spread in seven of their last eight games as favorites following a loss.
  • The Spurs have failed to cover the spread in each of their last five games as home underdogs against Western Conference opponents.

Total Points Facts

  • Each of the Spurs’ last six games has gone OVER the total points line.
  • Six of the Clippers’ last seven night games at Frost Bank Center have gone UNDER the total points line.

Spurs vs Clippers Prediction

The Clippers are still without Cam Christie and Kris Dunn, while the Spurs are still missing Sidy Cissoko. The Clippers are coming into this game with plenty of momentum as they were on a nice run before getting stopped by the Suns in a tough loss on Monday. The Spurs haven’t played since Saturday when they got smashed by 38 points to the Pacers in Paris. I am sure we will see a response from the Spurs after getting embarrassed in their last game. Maybe they storm out and take the lead at halftime, but in the end, I think the more reliable Clippers get the job done on the road.
