The Thunder will fancy their chances of doing just that as they have fared extremely well on the road of late. The Thunder have won their last three away games by an average of 13 points. That being said, Toronto will be a tough proposition for Oklahoma City at Air Canada Centre. The Raptors have won eight of their last 10 home games.
The Raptors are 5-3 SU and 4-4 ATS in their last eight home games against the Thunder.
Writer’s Prediction
Oklahoma City edges past Toronto, 105-101.
Boston Celtics vs. Los Angeles Clippers (10:30 PM ET)
Line: Boston Celtics (+3) at Los Angeles Clippers (-3); total: 209.0 – view all NBA lines
The Boston Celtics stretched their unbeaten run to four games with a nerve-wracking 102-99 victory over the Phoenix Suns on Saturday. Isaiah Thomas scored 28 points for the surging Celtics who moved to within a half-game of the Atlanta Hawks for third place in the Eastern Conference standings.
They will look to erase that deficit altogether when they face the Los Angeles Clippers later tonight. The Celtics will have their work cut of them, however, against the Clippers who have dominated them at Staples Center of late. The Clippers have won their last three home games against the Celtics by an average of 14.7 points.
The Clippers are 4-1 SU and 2-3 ATS in their last five games against the Celtics.
Writer’s Prediction
Los Angeles wins, 103-89.
