PUBLIC BETTING
As of this writing, 59% of the betting tickets wagered at online sportsbooks are on the Clippers to cover the point spread. Meanwhile, 59% of the betting tickets are on the over.
KEY INJURY TO WATCH
Danilo Gallinari remains out for the Clippers due to a hand injury. Also out for L.A. is Avery Bradley (groin) and, of course, Patrick Beverley (knee). Jahlil Okafor (illness), meanwhile, is proable for the Nets.
BETTING STRATEGY
In their last 16 games against the Clippers, the Nets covered the spread 12 times. They’re also 7-3 against the spread in their last 10 games played on Sunday while the Clippers are just 2-5 against the number in their last seven home games. Brooklyn is struggling but I still like the Nets to cover the number tonight on the road.
OUR PREDICTION: BROOKLYN NETS +7
