The Los Angeles Clippers have never won seven straight games to start a calendar year, but they’ll have an opportunity to do so tonight against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Sportsbooks opened the Clips as 5.5-point home favorites with a total of 213.5.
- The Thunder are 13-5 SU in their last 18 games on Monday.
- The total has gone UNDER in 10 of the Thunder's last 14 games on the road against teams with winning records.
- The Thunder are 4-1 SU in their last five games against the Clippers.
The Clippers are 16-6 SU on home court this year, but they’ll be without the services of injured power forward Blake Griffin, who’s battling a knee injury. L.A. will be in tough against OKC’s dynamic point guard Russell Westbrook, who notched his 20th triple-double of the campaign Sunday in the Thunder’s 122-118 victory over Sacramento.
OKC has won four of the last five meetings between the Western Conference foes, including the other one in Los Angeles this season. The Thunder improved to 6-2 ATS in their last eight at the Staples Center after that win.
The Thunder have quietly been a fantastic bet of late. Oklahoma City is 5-1 ATS in its last six affairs.
