Premium Pick

Houston looks to avenge a 128-118 loss to the Clippers on Dec. 22, and the Rockets currently are on a three-game winning streak while covering all three, including Friday's 112-95 win at Phoenix. Chris Paul had 25 points to lead six players in double figures, and the Rockets outrebounded the Suns 53-38. The Clippers have won four straight, including back-to-back wins over Sacramento. DeAndre Jordan missed the last game due to an ankle sprain and is questionable for this matchup. The Rockets are adjusting to playing without its star, James Harden, who still is on the injured list, and Los Angeles is 1-4-1 ATS the last six games after exploding for at least 125 points its previous contest. Chris Paul gets to face his former teammates for the first time as he was out the first meeting. Take the Rockets.
