The LA Clippers will sit on the visitor’s bench this Monday night at the Staples Center in a 10:30 p.m. tip against the rival LA Lakers. As part of a NBA TV doubleheader of betting action at BetAnySports, the Lakers are favored by 3.5 with the total set at 234 points, after opening at 237.
The Clippers continue to make a move up the Western Conference standings with five straight-up wins in their last seven games. They are 36-29 overall and holding down seventh place. With Sunday’s 128-107 rout against New York as 10-point favorites at home, they improved to 6-1 against the spread during this. LA is 37-28 ATS overall with a 20-15 record ATS on the road. The total has gone OVER in six of its last nine games.
Landry Shamet (21 points) and Danilo Gallinari (20 points) led the way in Sunday’s win. Still playing off the bench, Lou Williams continues to lead the team in scoring with an average of 19.8 points per game. He scored 18 points against New York with a shaky 4-for-14 shooting performance from the field. The Clippers are averaging 114.1 PPG and shooting 46.8 percent from the field this season.
Lakers Have to Start Winning
The Lakers have put a serious dent in their chances to play past the regular season with just one SU win in their last five games. The low point in this slide was Saturday’s 118-109 road loss to Phoenix as seven-point favorites. They have failed to cover BetAnySports’ closing number in their last five games with the total going OVER in three of those contests. They are 30-33 SU (26-36-1 ATS) overall and 4.5 games in back of San Antonio for that final playoff spot in the West.
LeBron James led the way in Saturday’s loss with 27 points while pulling down nine rebounds and dishing out 16 assists. On the year, he is averaging 27 PPG with 8.7 rebounds and 8.1 assists. He has now reached or exceeded his scoring average in four of his last five starts. The Lakers are ranked 13th in the NBA in scoring with 112.4 PPG and they fall to 24th in points allowed (113.9).
The designated road team in this matchup has won the first two meetings this season. That follows suit with the Clippers coming out on top this Monday both SU and ATS.
