The Los Angeles Clippers look to bounce back vs the Toronto Raptors tonight after a tough loss to the Pacers. The Clippers have dropped five of their last six games and it won’t get any easier in Toronto where the Clips are 1-7 SU and ATS in their last eight visits. Los Angeles opened as an 8-point dog to pull out the victory in the T.Dot.
- Toronto is 20-3 SU in its last 23 games.
- The total has gone OVER in four of the last six games in this matchup.
- Los Angeles is 1-4 ATS in its last five games.
The Clippers have been a mixed bag in March at 6-6 SU over 12 games and have dropped to 10th in the Western Conference. One of the reasons for Los Angeles’s falter has been its defense this month as the Clips allowed over 108 points per game, which ranks 23rd in the NBA in that span. This is the final game of a four-game road trip for the Clippers, who have done well at 9-1 SU in their last 10 games vs Eastern Conference teams.
On the flipside, the residual effect of the loss to the Cavaliers last Wednesday may still be stinging the Raptors as they needed to overcome a 14-point deficit in the second half to overcome the Nets on Saturday. Toronto is sitting pretty in first in the Eastern Conference and with nine games to go, is on pace to shatter previous W-L franchise records. But lately, the Raptors have been vulnerable and spread-bettors have been noticing as the Dinos are 0-5 ATS in their last five games and 2-4 ATS in their last six games at home.
The total opened at 225.5 and trends are pointing to an OVER. The Raps are in the top three in scoring in the NBA this season and the OVER has hit in their last three games at home with an average combined score of 240.6 points in those contests. When you factor in that the OVER has hit in four of the Clippers’ last five games, this total should easily be surpassed.
