Charlotte Hornets vs LA Clippers Picks and Prediction
Pick: LA Clippers
LA F Brandon Ingram (Achilles), C Yanic Konan Niederhauser (foot), and G Bradley Beal (knee) will remain sidelined for this contest. The Clippers have reeled off 16 straight victories against the Hornets and swept the two games last season by 23 total points. The Hornets are 5-7 ATS and failing to cover by an average of 7.8 points. Take the Clippers to cover at home.
Pick: Over
The Clippers are playing at the slowest tempo in the NBA and the Hornets are in the bottom five. The Clippers are struggling to get stops on defense and are 26th in defensive efficiency. Both teams turn the ball over a bunch and that will lead to points in transition. LA is the second most profitable over team with a 7-4 O/U record. Take the over.
Final Score Prediction: LA Clippers win 119-107
