PASS.
There’s no great moneyline play here. The Clippers (-275) are surging and should win with ease, but are too expensive to consider.
BET CLIPPERS -6.5 (-118).
The Clippers have covered in their last 3 games as a favorite and have been on fire offensively, scoring at least 117 points in 3 straight contests. They have covered in 3 straight road games as well.
The Wizards have failed to cover in 5 of their last 6 games and in 2 of their last 3 home performances. Their defense has remained one of the worst in the NBA, having allowed at least 119 points in 5 of their previous 6 games.
Take CLIPPERS -6.5 (-118).

Both teams have slight Over trends coming into this one. The Wizards have gone Over in 2 straight contests and are 23-18 O/U on the season. Their offense has improved as well, scoring at least 115 points in their previous 2 games.
