Houston at Los Angeles

Both teams have struggled badly lately and Los Angeles should not be laying this many points having won just one of their past eight games with a 2-6 ATS record. The Clippers lost again on Friday night 115-103 at home against Denver, which was playing without Nikola Jokic, who was out with a sore wrist, and the Nuggets still shot 50 percent. Houston has played a tough schedule its past 10 games and six were on the road. The Clippers have their usual array of injuries, including Paul George, who is listed as out (hamstring). Los Angeles is 1-5 ATS its past six following a loss of at least 10 points and the Clippers are just 10-12 ATS at home this season. Take the points with the Rockets.
