Clippers vs. Suns Predictions

Taking the Clippers under the total at home was a profitable strategy early in the season. Things have changed, and LAC has made several moves to its roster. Now, the Clippers seem to be leaning toward the over. As you can see in the trends above, LAC is 9-1-1 to the over in its last 11 games. That includes a push and an over in the first two games of this series.

Phoenix has been an “over team” as well, and that shouldn’t be much of a surprise after adding Kevin Durant to an already potent offense. The Suns are 4-0-1 to the over in their last five games. Getting an unleashed version of Durant playing 40+ minutes certainly helps.

In fact, the stars have come out in full force in this series, which should continue on Thursday. Look for Kawhi Leonard and Russell Westbrook — who combined for 59 points in Game 2 — to keep scoring for the Clippers. And you know Durant/Booker will keep doing their thing.

Take the over!
