Suns at Clippers picks and predictions

Prediction

Suns 108, Clippers 102

Moneyline

It remains to be seen if F Kawhi Leonard will play Thursday in the 2nd leg of a back-to-back, so I’ll side with the SUNS (+100) at plus odds in hopes that Booker and/or Ayton is available for Phoenix. The Suns have won 3 of the last 4 meetings against the Clippers.

Against the spread

Being that I have Phoenix winning on the road SUNS +1.5 (-110) is where I’m siding with the spread in this game. The Clippers have rested starters on back-to-backs this season, so they could be shorthanded while the Suns could be getting Booker back on the court.

The Suns are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 road meetings against the Clippers.

Over/Under

In recent meetings, the Suns and the Clippers have had low-scoring affairs, so UNDER 217.5 (-105) is the play. This number could grow if Booker is active for Phoenix, but I’d still side with the Under if he plays.
