The Los Angeles Clippers have been one of the best teams in basketball since mid-December — especially at home — and they’ll try to carry that over into February when they open the month against the Philadelphia 76ers.
My Clippers vs. 76ers predictions and NBA picks break down why tonight will be no different.
76ers vs Clippers prediction
76ers vs Clippers best bet: Clippers -2 (-110)
The Los Angeles Clippers are an NBA-best 17-4 since mid-December and rank third in net rating during that stretch.
The Philadelphia 76ers didn’t have a bad January either, but their recent wins have come against soft competition, and they rank 26th in defensive rating over the past 10 games.
That means slowing down Kawhi Leonard and James Harden won’t be easy. It’ll be even harder with Joel Embiid banged up and Paul George serving his suspension.
This version of the Clippers has also been a great bet at home, going 10-1 ATS in their last 11 at the Intuit Dome.

One reason the Clippers have been better lately is their offense has become more balanced, and John Collins is a part of that.
He’s averaging 16.3 points over his last 13 games while topping this number of 14.5 nine times over that stretch.
Meanwhile, I expect VJ Edgecombe to go over his point total thanks to some added opportunities with George sidelined for the next little while. Edgecombe has always logged plenty of minutes, but he’ll get more shots up now as well.

When his dreams of becoming the next Steve Nash died, all Andrew “Taco” Caley wanted to do was write about sports, something he’s been doing at Covers for more than a decade. A Journalism School grad from Holland College in Charlottetown, PEI, Andrew previously worked at The Chronicle Herald and Star Metro, but knew in his heart that his future lay in sports. He began at Covers as a news editor and has now done everything under the sun when it comes to content. His work has been seen on TSN, Sportsnet, VSiN, and CBS. These days Andrew’s betting expertise is focused on his favorite teams; the Toronto Blue Jays and Toronto Raptors. He’s also an avid college football fan and bettor. He can’t be friends with you if you don’t appreciate a Service Academy Under. The sportsbook where he does the bulk of his betting is bet365 thanks to its numerous prop betting options and competitive odds. His best advice? Find the balance between the numbers and what you see on the playing field. Then find the best price using multiple books. And don’t ask him where the nickname Taco comes from. It’s not an interesting story. Seriously.
