Phoenix Suns vs Los Angeles Clippers Prediction: We like Tyronn Lue's team to win

Prediction for the NBA Phoenix Suns vs Los Angeles Clippers match will occur on March 5. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Phoenix Suns

The Suns have been struggling lately, losing eight of their last ten games. Their only victories in that stretch came against now-weak Chicago (121-117 on the road) and New Orleans (125-108 at home). The Suns also lost to the same Pelicans, 116-124, on their home court.

Phoenix's current level of play was on full display last time out. At home, Mike Budenholzer's team didn't even score a hundred points in a 98-116 loss to Minnesota. Kevin Durant scored 26 points and grabbed 10 rebounds, but once again, he could not get the support he needed from his teammates.

Arizona is 11th in the Western Conference with a 28-33 record. They are already 4.0 wins adrift of the top 10, making Phoenix's failure to even make the play-in look increasingly realistic.

Los Angeles Clippers

Tyronn Lue's team may be sitting a lot more comfortably in the standings than Phoenix, but they, too, have had their fair share of problems of late. The Clippers have lost sixth place in the Western Conference and are out of the playoff picture. 

The Clippers go into the game in Phoenix, having lost two in a row. As visitors, LAC lost two consecutive Los Angeles derbies to the Lakers - 102-106 and 102-108. As you can see from these results, the Clippers are far from having a good offense. This is due to the absence of Norman Powell, one of the team's leading scorers.

The Clippers have now lost five of their last six games.

Expert Betting Tips

With Norman Powell coming off the injured list, the Los Angeles Clippers could finally get some offensive fire going in this one. Phoenix has been struggling defensively of late. We also like Tyronn Lue's team to win, as the Suns can only be beaten by the lazy, as they say.
