Already struggling with looses in 11 of 14, the Warriors now have to go it minus Steph Curry (load management) and perhaps Draymond Green tonight in Inglewood. Steve Kerr's issues all season have been to find a reliable second wheel to complement Steph, the role that Klay Thompson (and, for a while, Kevin Durant) used to fill ably. . Jonathan Kuminga and Brandin Podziemski now seem like the next men up, but can they deliver? Meanwhile, all season, the Clips have trended under and they are back on that course, landing that way in three straight, and now 11-6 the last seventeen games since mid-November. The last meeting between these two landed 102-99 Clips at Intuit Dome Nov. 18. Play Warriors-Clippers Under

Maybe a bit of a letdown game for Golden State off that epic Christmas Day matchup and last-second loss to the other LA team. Steph Curry is out tonight and Draymond Green might be in the front end of a B2B. The Clips have won three of four, have been off since Monday and are getting healthier -- even Kawhi Leonard might return soon. Just not here.

DraftKings. Of course I’m back on Norman Powell’s points prop. With Kawhi Leonard still sidelined, Powell has been a consistent scoring force for the Clippers. Averaging 24 points per game this season, Powell has cleared this line in 16/23 games this season. The Warriors do allow spot up opportunities at the league’s highest frequency - Powell’s preferred scoring method in the half-court.

The Warriors are just 3-11 in their last 14 games; only laying one point at home is basically a pick 'em. GS superpower early in season was its defense, as much as we think of Steph and all the 3-point shooting. However, they rank just 21st in defensive rating in Dec, with -6.7 +/-. Regularly allowing 104+ points. LAC 1-4 ATS in last 5 failing to cover by 6, 12, 19, 11 points. They're 0-4 ATS in the division and 4-5 as a road dog. Clippers 9-3 ATS in last 12 at home; beat Warriors twice already and are 7-2 ATS as a favorite (5-2 ATS as home favorite) and 10-6 ATS at home. Warriors have struggled as a dog getting just a few points.
