OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER VS LA CLIPPERS
OKC to Cover $1.90

The Clippers play the 2nd of back-to-back away games when they travel to Oklahoma.

The Clips are 5-7 on the road this season (as of 20/12), but enter this fixture on an eight-game winning streak.

Meanwhile, OKC are 9-4 at home, and will be playing with a rest advantage over their opponents.

OKC has comfortably won their last four home fixtures against the Clippers coving the spread in each victory.

I’m backing the Thunder to win this one comfortably.

MINNASOTA TIMBERWOLVES VS LOS ANGELES LAKERS
Timberwolves to Cover $1.90

Like their LA neighbours, the Lakers are set to play the 2nd of back-to-back road fixtures when they travel to Minnesota’s fortress, the Target Center.

The T-Wolves are 11-1 at home this season, 8-2-2 against the line in those fixtures.

Meanwhile, the Lakers are 5-9 on the road (as of 20/12) and have lost three of there last four games since winning the In-Season Tournament.

The T-Wolves have covered the line in seven of their last eight meetings with the Lakers and I’m backing them to run over the old legs of LeBron.
