LA Clippers (14-10) versus Houston Rockets (15-8) is a Western Conference matchup at the Intuit Dome on Sunday night. The Clippers were doing fine lately until the Timberwolves defeated them on Wednesday night. They suffered an 80-108 humiliation at home, with none of their players scoring 20 or more points. However, they had enough time to rest and prepare for the Rockets, who the struggling Warriors shot down on Thursday night. It was a disappointing night for the Rockets, who saw none of their stars get 20+ points. They have now suffered two losses on the bounce, allowing OKC Thunder to open a 2.5 gap on top of the conference standings. They must quickly respond to their recent slump to keep up with the pace.

Our LA Clippers vs Houston Rockets Prediction

Houston Rockets are hanging onto their second spot by the thread, with the red-hot Mavericks and Grizzlies giving chase. Another defeat could see them move down to fourth position. The good news for them is that they have no significant injury worries. Only Tari Eason is on the treatment table with a concussion and could be back on Sunday. LA, on the other hand, has six injured players, led by Kawhi Leonard, who is out with a knee injury until December 19. But even without the superstar, they have made Intuit Dome their fortress this season. The Rockets will need a good plan to contain them on Sunday. Our prediction for LA Clippers vs Houston Rockets: LA Clippers to win.
