NBA Betting Trends
Los Angeles
The Clippers are 10-1 against the spread in their last 11 Tuesday games, but just 5-12 ATS in their last 17 games following a win.
Philadelphia
The 76ers are 0-5 against the spread in their last five games on 1 day of rest and 1-5 ATS in their last six games as an underdog.
Prediction:
These two haven’t met this season, but Philly has covered the spread in seven straight meetings with the Clippers, dating all the way back to 2016. While the 76ers have struggled on the road, they are very solid at home. I think they will play up tonight at home against the strong Clippers. Los Angeles is without one of their best guard defenders, which should allow Philadelphia to be more aggressive on offense and be able to attack the basket.
NBA Prediction: Philadelphia 76ers +1
