Series History

The Thunder went 1-2 against the Clippers last season (1-0 at home, 0-2 on the road).

Why the Thunder Will Cover (+9.5)

It’s hard to pick against the Thunder when it comes to the spread, even with key players out due to injury. I’d feel a lot more comfortable if the line was OKC (+10.5), but I’m believing in the home crowd to keep the good guys in this one until the end.

Staff Picks

Why the Game Will Hit the Over (214.5)

OKC is down their top two ball handlers with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Josh Giddey sitting due to injuries, but Tre Mann has been in this position before, so I think he will do alright running the offense. The Clippers have struggled to score points through their first three games, but the an injured Thunder squad might be just what the doctor ordered for LA. It might be close, but I’m feel good about the over on the point total tonight.
