Los Angeles Clippers vs. Minnesota Timberwolves (7:00 PM ET)

Line: Los Angeles Clippers (-5.5) at Minnesota Timberwolves (+5.5); total: 212.0 – view all NBA lines

The Los Angeles Clippers stretched their unbeaten run to three games with an emphatic 114-90 victory over the Boston Celtics on Monday. Six players scored in double-figures for the Clippers who moved 5.5 games ahead of the Memphis Grizzlies for fourth place in the Western Conference with nine games to play.

The Clippers will look to keep the momentum going when they face the Minnesota Timberwolves later tonight. For the Clips to accomplish that feat, they will need to continue their stellar play on the offensive end. They are averaging 104.4 points per game this season, seventh in the NBA this campaign.  Doc Rivers’ men dropped an average of 106.3 points against the Wolves in their first three meetings this season.

The Clippers are 2-1 SU and 0-2-1 ATS against the Wolves this season.

Writer’s Prediction

The Clippers ease past the Wolves, 108-94.

Miami Heat vs. Los Angeles Lakers (10:30 PM ET)

Line: Miami Heat (-10) at Los Angeles Lakers (+10); total: 207.5 – view all NBA lines

Two teams at opposite ends of the NBA spectrum will meet tonight in sunny California as the red-hot Miami Heat square off with the struggling Los Angeles Lakers at Staples Center. The Heat have recorded two straight wins to climb up to fourth place in the Eastern Conference (43-30). The same can’t be said about the slumping Lakers, who are languishing at the bottom of the Western Conference standings with a horrendous 15-59 record. They are coming off a humiliating 123-75 loss to Utah on Monday.

The Heat have won nine of their last 10 meetings with the Lakers. The Lakers, however, have covered the spread in four of those 10 games.  The Heat are 6-4 SU and ATS in their last 10 road games. The Lakers, on the other hand, are 3-7 SU and ATS in their last 10 home games.

The Heat are 4-1 SU and 3-2 ATS in their last five road games against the Lakers.

Writer’s Prediction

Los Angeles stuns Miami, 99-94.
