Los Angeles is off to a terrible start this season and a lot of it has to do with injuries, but the Clippers simply are not playing well as they come off two losses to Oklahoma City and they were prohibitive favorites in both games. New Orleans has won three of five, including a win over Dallas before going to Phoenix and losing 124-111 on Friday as the Suns shot 52.2 percent. The Pelicans are 7-1 ATS the past eight meetings and the Clippers still are listing Kawhi Leonard as being out to rest his knee. New Orleans is 8-2 ATS following a loss and the Clippers are 7-19 ATS playing with two days rest dating to last season. Also, the Clippers have covered the spread just once this season and that was the season opener. The Pelicans are shooting 48.8 percent and Los Angeles allows 47.3 percent. The Clippers are a slight favorite so go with the Pelicans on the money line.
