LA Clippers and Denver Nuggets will lock horns in Game 3 of this exciting seven-game NBA playoff series. The Clippers find themselves trailing this series 1-0 after Westbrook delivered a clutch masterclass to help the Nuggets bag Game 1 in OT. Westbrook's aggression and confidence were again visible in this matchup, scoring a massive 3-pointer at the end of regulation to deny the Clippers victory at the Ball Arena.
Interestingly, the Nuggets played the second fiddle for most of the night, trailing the Clippers by 15 points at some point. This is the type of spark the Nuggets have expected from Westbrook since he joined them from the Clippers, showcasing how he can influence the game with high-energy play. The Clippers must now spend time to find answers to Westbrook's aggressiveness while keeping Jokic quiet. The three-time MVP finished Game 1 with 29 points, 9 rebounds, and 12 assists. The Clippers must deliver a big performance or risk being eliminated in Round 1.

Our LA Clippers vs Denver Nuggets Prediction
The Clippers must maximize their home games to stay in this series. Sadly, the H2H record doesn't favor them, losing six of their last 10 games against the Nuggets at Intuit Dome.
The Clippers also lost three of their previous four meetings with the Nuggets. However, they played well in Game 1, and we expect them to take their first home game in this series. They don't have any injury concerns, with only Seth Lundy sitting out of this tournament. The Nuggets will make a game-time decision on the fitness of Aaron Gordon before Game 2. He should be fit to travel to LA with the squad.
Our prediction for LA Clippers vs Denver Nuggets: LA Clippers to cover -2.5 spread.
