Free LA Clippers vs. Los Angeles Lakers NBA Prediction:
Wednesday, December 25th, the LA Clippers face the Los Angeles Clippers in the clubs second meeting of the season. In the first match on opening night, the Clippers won 112-102.
Last season, the teams played four times with each team winning twice. The Lakers hold the all-time record having bested the Clippers in 148 of their 221 matches
LA Clippers
Paul George returned to the team he asked to be traded from and the player who was sent to OKC to cement the trade got the best of the match as the Clippers fell to the Thunder without Kawhi Leonard in the lineup.
It’s the fifth loss for the Clippers when Leonard sits matching the total of losses the Raptors suffered last season without him in the lineup.

George was received well in Oklahoma who are content with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and his potential as well as all those draft picks. Five Clippers registered double-digit scoring with Lou Williams leading the way scoring 22.
Montrezl Harrell (18), Paul George (18), Landry Shamet (14) and Patrick Patterson (12) were the other double-figure contributors.
Kawhi Leonard leads the Clippers in scoring with 25.5 points while Lou Williams is the top assist man with 6.1 dimes and Mo Harkless is the team leader for steals with 1.1 robberies per game.
Montrezl Harrell leads three team categories including rebounding (7.5), field goal percent (57.2%) and blocks (1.2).
Patrick Beverley missed the last game nursing a groin injury but is expected to play Wednesday.
Los Angeles Lakers
Each of LeBron James and Anthony Davis has been nursing injuries and missed games leading to the Lakers losing three games in a row to the Pacer, Bucks, and Nuggets. Both are expected to suit up Christmas Day.
In the most recent loss to the Nuggets, Anthony Davis did his best to keep his Lakers in the match delivering a double-double of 32 points and 11 rebounds. Unfortunately, Kyle Kuzma was the only teammate to pitch in double-figures with 16 points.
On the season the team leader board features LA’s two superstars with Davis topping five key categories including points (27.9), rebounds (9.4), field goal percent (49.9%), blocks (2.7) and steals (1.4) while James is tops in assists (10.6).
Kyle Kuzma (ankle), Anthony Davis (knee), and LeBron James (ribs) are all listed as probable. DeMarcus Cousins is rehabbing the torn ACL in his right knee and hopes to return for postseason play.
NBA Betting Trends:
- The Clippers are 7-3 ATS in their last 10
- The Clippers are 6-4 in last 10 head to head

Free LA Clippers vs. Los Angeles Lakers NBA Prediction:
In the marquee match of the Christmas Day slate, both teams are basically playing on their homecourt although the Lakers are technically the home team.
The superstar duos of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George versus LeBron James and Anthony Davis is what will drive the match. But, it could be the benches that offer the greatest advantage with Lou Williams and Montrezl Harrell of the Clippers having the edge in the match.
4* Free NBA Betting Pick: Clippers plus points
Both teams are struggling with five losses in six outings (Lakers three in a row, Clippers two of three) but this game will have a playoff atmosphere to it with both squads wanting to send a message.
Aside from the benches, the key will be who on the Clippers can stop Davis and conversely who on the Lakers can stop Leonard. Last week Kawhi put on a show in San Antonio which reminded fans how dominant he can be when he’s dialed in to win – – expect the same in this match.
