Clippers at Raptors picks and predictionsPrediction

Clippers 113, Raptors 107

PASS.

There’s no playable moneyline wager to be had. The Clippers (-135) should come out on top and are scorching hot, but they are slightly too expensive to consider.

BET CLIPPERS -2.5 (-102).

The Raptors have covered well this season yet are just 3-4 ATS as a home underdog. They’ve also struggled to produce offensively this season when Barrett is sidelined.

The Clippers have been on a roll, allowing 109 points or fewer in 4 straight games while winning and covering in each. Los Angeles has covered in 3 straight as a favorite.

Back CLIPPERS -2.5 (-105).

BET OVER 215.5 (-110).

Both teams have elite scorers. The Raptors, who have tallied at least 115 points in 3 of their last 4 games, are 2-2 O/U in their last 4 contests.

Los Angeles has gone 3-2 O/U in its last 5 performances and has tallied at least 111 points in 4 of those games. The Clippers have scored at least 115 points in 6 of their last 9 contests.

Take OVER 215.5 (-110).
