Raptors at Clippers picks and predictions

Prediction

Clippers 115, Raptors 104

Moneyline

The Raptors are winless on the road and allowing 124.7 points per game, the most in the league.

The Clippers are No. 2 in scoring defense, allowing 106.7 points per game. Opponents have not scored 100 points in their last two games and have not scored more than 105 points in four consecutive games.

The Clippers should win their fourth straight game, but betting at -250 isn’t worth the move unless you include it in a parlay.

PASSAGE.

Against the spread

The Clippers are 6-3 ATS this season and have covered the spread in each of their consecutive wins. Their last 3 wins have all been by 9 or more points.

The Raptors are 7-2 ATS. They had seven straight covers before losing to the Kings on Wednesday.

BETTIVERS -6.5 (-105).

Top/Bottom

Only two of the Clippers games this season had a total of even 220.

The Over is 7-2 in Toronto games this season.

But if the Clippers win, it will be a slower game. Only once this season have they scored more than 113 points.

BET UNDER 224.5 (-110).
