Boston Celtics vs. Los Angeles Clippers prediction, odds, TV channel
Tuesday night at the
Staples Center
Crypto.com Arena was not the kind of night the Boston Celtics were hoping for.
Against the Los Angeles Lakers, the Cs allowed their historical rivals to shoot 51.6% from the field and were outrebounded 51-34 in a 117-102 loss.
The loss sets Boston back to just a game over .500, and there’s no rest of the weary Wednesday night as they take on the Los Angeles Clippers on the second night of a west coast back-to-back in the City of Angels.
Can the Celtics turn things around tonight or is .500 in their future?
Hardwood Houdini is here to dish out some odds, TV channel info, and a prediction for Tuesday night’s action:
Boston Celtics vs. Los Angeles Clippers odds, spread, over/under
According to WynnBet, the Celtics are a 3-point underdog against the Clippers on the road. Los Angeles is a -150 home favorite, with the Cs moneyline set at +130. The over/under for the game has been placed at 211 points.
The point spread and moneyline are nearly identical to last night’s game against the Lakers. Unlike the Celtics, the Clippers are coming off of a double-digit win over Portland.
Celtics vs. Clippers TV channel
Tonight’s action will require either an NBA League Pass subscription or for the viewer to be in-market. NBC Sports Boston, Bally Sports SoCal, and Bally Sports San Diego will be your viewing homes to Celtics-Clippers.
Celtics vs. Clippers prediction
The Houdini is starting to gain some momentum, currently sitting on a two-pick win-streak with the Celtics-Lakers over hitting and Boston covering against Portland this past Saturday.
We’re going to lean on the over once again, with the Cs ceding 123.6 points per game in their last three. Ime Udoka has not gotten the most of his defense of late, and with little turnaround from their last game, we predict that trend continuing.
