Suns vs. Clippers Odds & Betting Predictions - November 1, 2024

I like his game, but the books know something in this game. They refuse to raise his line to where it should be, and that points to him staying under 20 tonight

Big Zoo off a stinker in a great matchup

The Suns take on the Clippers in an opening night rematch. The Clippers will be at a rest disadvantage here having played yesterday as they still seek their first win at the new Intuit Dome. Kevin Durant has been excellent to start the season and is averaging 29 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 assists so far. The scoring has stood out though with 3 connective 30 point performances after his 25 point opening night game against the Clippers. One key is Durant has been more successful at generating contact and getting to the FT line - he is averaging 8 FTA compared to just 5.6 last season. Much of this is because his shot profile is slightly different. While he still is taking the majority of his shots from the midrange, he’s move in a bit closer and is taking fewer Long Mid Range shots which has lead to even greater efficiency overall for KD. I don’t think LAC has a great defensive option to run against KD, and with the back-to-back, he should be able to take advantage of some tired legs. I’ll grab KD to continue his hot start to the season and exceed 26.5 points.
