Pacers a Fantastic Bet With Extra Rest
It's taken longer than it should have, but the Los Angeles Clippers appear to have finally found their footing in the 2015-16 NBA campaign. The Clips have won three-straight and will be seeking to make it four in a row Wednesday when they play host to Paul George and the surprising Indiana Pacers.
Indiana has been extremely impressive this season, winning eight of their last nine heading into the contest to sit at 11-5 SU. George, who missed nearly all of last season due to a leg injury, is putting the team on his back and then some this year. The Fresno State product is averaging 27.2 points and 8.1 rebounds per game while shooting a blitzing .459 from the field through 16 games.
Totals bettors take note: the Clippers have been one of the hottest UNDER teams in the NBA recently due to their penchant for participating in low-scoring affairs. The UNDER has paid out in six out of Los Angeles’s last seven games.
