Our LA Clippers vs New Orleans Pelicans Prediction
Fearless Forecast: The Clippers will blow by the Pelicans to cover the spread at -10.5 points. Despite averaging just 107 points per game this season, the Clippers own the third-best defense in the league at 109 points allowed per game. The Pelicans would have to find another source of points other than Williamson to have a chance at beating the Clippers, who are 9-1 in their last 10 meetings against the Pels. New Orleans failed to breach the 100-point mark in the past two games, and I expect them to fall short of reaching the century mark again when they play the Clippers’ suffocating defense.
Our betting prediction for the Los Angeles Clippers vs. the New Orleans Pelicans: The Clippers -10.5 points
