The Los Angeles Clippers have had a tough stretch recently. They lost their last three games, with the most recent being a close 105-102 loss to the Atlanta Hawks. James Harden had a strong performance in that game, scoring 35 points and adding 10 rebounds and 11 assists.

However, they have challenges defending the three-point line, allowing opponents to shoot 39.4% from beyond the arc, ranking them 28th. Kawhi Leonard and Bradley Beal are currently out with injuries, which could impact their performance.
BTB Betting Pick
The Nuggets are favored by 2.5 points against the Clippers. Given the Nuggets’ strong offensive stats, scoring 124.2 points per game, and their solid defense allowing only 111 points per game, they are likely to cover the spread. The Clippers struggle offensively, scoring just 108.9 points per game, which makes the Nuggets a good pick against the spread.
The total for the game is set at 225.5 points. The Nuggets’ high-scoring ability, combined with their effective defense, suggests a lower total score. The Clippers’ offense ranks near the bottom of the league, which supports taking the under. A projected score of Nuggets 118, Clippers 107 aligns with the under 225.5 pick.
