LA Clippers vs Brooklyn Prediction: the Nets are About to Suffer From Another Losing Streak

Brooklyn's on a road trip and they won the first match of the series against Portland. But will the game against the Los Angeles Clippers be much worse for Jordi Fernandez's team and will they lose? We're offering a prediction for the final match of the next NBA game day. We'll pick a few options for betting.

LA Clippers

LAC played the previous match at home against Miami, showing off their best qualities, with less than a hundred points conceded. At the same time, the Clippers were pretty effective on offense, making 28 assists on just 12 turnovers, and the result was 109:98. Norman Powell, who scored 29 points, is worth noting separately in the Californians' lineup. James Harden scored 26 points and had 11 assists, and Ivica Zubac added 21 points and 20 rebounds. So, the Clippers won their second game in the last six, but they're still pretty comfortable in the standings. LAC are fifth in the Western Conference with 20 wins and 17 losses, and they're currently 0.5 wins ahead of seventh place.

Brooklyn

The Nets are on their fourth road game in a row. Jordi Fernandez's team lost the first matches to Denver (105:124) and Utah (111:112 (102:102) in overtime). But then they surprisingly defeated Portland 132:114. The New Yorkers had 36 assists and got more rebounds than their opponents (44-38). Cameron Johnson scored 26 points for the Nets, while Keon Johnson and Noah Clowney each got 20. Brooklyn snapped a run of five straight losses and secured their second victory in a stretch of ten previous games. The team is currently 12th in the Eastern Conference standings with a 14-26 record and 5.0 wins behind the play-in zone.
