Score prediction
Thunder 112-106 Clippers. The Clippers are 2-3 at home, and Oklahoma City is 3-4 on the road. We have the Thunder by six.
Thunder vs Clippers prediction
The Canadian books make Oklahoma City about a 69 per cent chance, and its net rating is 9.8 points per 100 possessions better than the Clippers’.
Oklahoma City is 3-4 away from home and has three regulars out long-term, so we would back it to win here but not to cover 7.5 points, which sits past our margin.
Our pick: the Thunder to win. The spread runs from −7.5 to −8.5, past our six-point margin, so we pass on it.
What would change it: if Ajay Mitchell missed a second straight game, the Clippers would have a better chance, but Oklahoma City would still be our pick.
Both clubs are placed in this week’s NBA power rankings. The NBA games tonight board lists Friday’s other NBA games.
