Oklahoma City Thunder vs LA Clippers. The NBA Pick for this game is the Oklahoma City Thunder. Both clubs are fired up going into this match.

Although the Clippers are only three games above.500, Oklahoma City did not perform as well at home as they have on the road this season.

The Thunder are 6-1 ATS in the previous seven encounters and defeated the Clippers both times this season.

This season, Los Angeles averaged 111.4 points per game at home while Oklahoma City averaged 113.6 points away from home. They can match Los Angeles offensively, but their defense is obviously not as strong.

Los Angeles is unable to capitalize on that, though, which should keep this game tight and give Oklahoma the win against the spread. The Oklahoma City Thunder will win to a predicted score of 122-116.
