Los Angeles Clippers vs. Brooklyn Nets: Betting Odds
Los Angeles is having a season full of ups and downs, but they seem to have found some form of stability. With two consecutive victories, they now have seven wins, and 5 losses so far this season. They have played six games at home, with a 50-50 win-loss record.
Their away form, however, has been much better, winning four out of six games. Paul George has stepped up and performed in recent games. He is averaging 25.4 points per game, along with 6.1 rebounds and 4.5 in 11 games.
The Absence of Kawhi Leonard is still a mystery. Looks like he is not going to return anytime soon from injury.
The Brooklyn Nets had an impressive victory over the New York Knicks in their last outing (112-85). Durant, once again, led the scoring charts with 29 points and the defense of the team really showed some grit.
