Los Angeles Clippers Betting Preview:
The LA Clippers come into this game winning their last two games in a row, which included wins against the Hawks and then on Tuesday Night against the Nuggets. They now sit in that Western Conference 8th seed at 21-21.
With a day of rest, they’ll now try to get over that 500 mark if they can pull off a win in this one. Amir Coffey has been red hot from 3-point land this last two games, going 8 of 15 and leading this LA team to grab those two wins.
For this matchup, you should see similar numbers by Coffey since he’ll be going up against this New Orleans team that’s one of the worst in the entire NBA defending the 3-pointer.
Justice Winslow and Luke Kennard are both questionable for this game while Paul George and Kawhi Leonard will still both be out due to their elbow and knee injuries.
The Clippers the last 3 games have playing top tier defense holding opponents to an average of 100 points, but their offense has been struggling only scoring an average of 100.3 points.

New Orleans over the last 3 games are scoring an average of 105.7 points lead by Brandon Ingram putting up an average of 29 points.
