The Clippers and Warriors meet for the second time this season as Golden State hopes Stephen Curry will play.
Los Angeles is 7-7 this season and 1-3 in the last four games. While the Clippers won last night and snapped a three-game losing streak, they are in a bad place to rest. The Clippers are in the second night of a back-to-back, the third game in four days and the fifth game in seven days. Los Angeles won 112-104 at Golden State earlier this season.
Golden State is 10-2 this season and has won its past three games. The Warriors’ Stephen Curry is questionable to play, which will impact the betting line for this match (Golden State -5). Golden State has a big rest advantage this past week with two games (Friday and Tuesday) compared to the Clippers who played their fifth game in a similar period.

NBC Sportsbook Best Bet
Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) likes the Warriors beating Los Angeles -5:
“It’s tempting to get +5 points as an underdog to the Clippers with Stephen Curry in trouble and questionable for this game.
Curry exploded for 36 and 37 points in two games last week, but had 13 against Memphis on 4-of-9 shooting over 26 minutes. If Curry isn’t 100 percent, the offense will struggle for Golden State and look a lot more stagnant.
The Clippers are looking to overcome the 7-7 mark, have nice home field advantage in the fourth quarter with the new ‘wall’ addition to the arena, and won their last game, snapping a three-game losing streak.
If Curry is out, I like the Clippers a little more, but if he is, I’d take Golden State -5. The Clippers will play the second night of a back-to-back, the third game in four days and the fifth game in seven days, while Golden State last played on Friday and the previous Tuesday.
The Warriors have a great calmness factor and that goes a long way in the NBA.”
Here are the best bets our model predicts for the Clippers and Warriors:
· Moneyline: NBC Sports finds confidence in taking Golden State on the ML (-210)
· Spread: NBC Sports has high confidence in Golden State -5 on the spread
· Total: NBC Sports has little confidence heading into a game at the Total UNDER 225.0 points
