Los Angeles Has Scored Back-to-Back Upset Wins Despite Injuries
The Clippers pulled off an impressive upset win over the Golden State Warriors at home on Monday night, outscoring the Warriors 33-19 in the third quarter en route to a 119-104 win.
The victory as a 6-point underdog came just two nights after Los Angeles picked up a 99-97 win as a 7-point dog against the Dallas Mavericks. Los Angeles was 1-4 SU and 0-5 ATS over its previous five games prior to this recent pair of victories.
Injuries continue to be an issue for this Clippers squad. Norman Powell was off to a hot start with 21 points per game in his first three games in Los Angeles after being acquired from the Portland Trail Blazers, but he’s now out indefinitely with a foot fracture. Luke Kennard is questionable to return from his ankle injury against Phoenix. The Clippers have had to deal with all of this while their two best players, Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, remain out indefinitely.
Phoenix Finally Getting Respect On NBA Championship Odds
The Suns have been the best team in the NBA this season, and it hasn’t even been close. With their recent 132-105 win and cover as 16.5-point favorites at home over the Orlando Magic, Phoenix improved to 46-10 SU and 32-24 ATS on the season with a 16-1 SU and 11-6 ATS record over its last 17 games. Golden State currently sits five games behind Phoenix for the second-best record in the NBA.
Despite their dominance, the Suns have spent most of the season sitting behind teams like the Brooklyn Nets and the Warriors on the futures betting board. That has changed recently as the Suns are now the favorite to win the NBA championship at +400. Bettors taking Phoenix as their Clippers vs Suns prediction will be looking for more of the same dominance in this matchup.
