Los Angeles Clippers

The Clippers are riding a 7 game win streak into Sunday. The latest was a 101-100 victory over the Sacramento Kings on Friday. Kawhi Leonard led the team with 28 points and 7 rebounds. James Harden finished with 23 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists. LA finished 51% from the field and 33% from behind the arc. 

Golden State Warriors

The Warriors are coming off of a 103-86 win over the Portland Trail Blazers on Friday night. Jimmy Butler III finished with 24 points on 6 of 10 shooting from the field. Steph Curry added 14 points. The Warriors finished 14 of 44 from behind the arc. Curry suffered a right thumb sprain in this matchup that has him listed as questionable for Sunday.  

Los Angeles is 3-2 ATS in their last 5 games

The OVER is 3-1 in Los Angelesโ€™ last 4 games

Golden State is 6-3-1 ATS in their last 10 games

The UNDER is 4-1 in Golden Stateโ€™s last 5 games

Clippers vs. Warriors Prediction:

I like the Clippers to cover the spread on the road on Sunday afternoon. This game does matter for each team. The Clippers enter this matchup winning 9 of their last 10 games and covering in 7 of their last 10 games. They are also 18-15 ATS as underdogs this season and have covered in 4 of their last 5 road games. LA has also dominated the head-to-head matchup, winning 8 of the last 10 and covering in 7 of the last 10 games between these two. They have won and covered in each of the last 5 games and all 3 this season. Iโ€™ll take them as an underdog on Sunday with Stephen Curry dealing with a thumb injury.
