PUBLIC BETTING

As of Friday morning, public betting information had yet to be released for this game. Check our public betting page for the latest information.

INJURY TO WATCH

Clippers shooting guard Avery Bradley (hernia) is out until early May, while small forward Danilo Gallinari (hand) is out until late March. For the Thunder, small forward Paul George (groin) and center Steven Adams (hip) are questionable.

BETTING STRATEGY

Los Angeles is on a back-to-back and put a lot of effort into last night's game, a 101-96 loss at the Rockets. Oklahoma City, on the other hand, hasn't played until Tuesday and is riding a four-game winning streak. The Thunder beat the Clippers 120-111 at home back in November, while two months ago they defeated host LA 127-117. Oklahoma City already have LA's number and have had a couple full days of rest. I have to side with the home team here.
