*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Saturday, April 8th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Sunday, April 9th.
LA Clippers
Arguably the Clippers are in the worst position of the teams fighting in the Western Conference for seeding. Although each of the clubs wants to avoid the play-in tournament they also covet the sixth seed to face an inexperienced Kings club.
The problem for the Clippers is if they lose they could plummet into the play-in tournament which isn’t something they want to mess with. Conversely, by winning they lock into the fifth seed and get to face the Suns as their reward.
Stats
Presently, LA ranks 19th for scoring averaging 113.5 points per game while shooting 47.7% from the field and 38.2% from the perimeter ranking 12th and third respectively.
Opponents average 113.1 points per game ranking 13th lowest overall while allowing opponents to shoot 47.4% from the field and 36.5% from the perimeter ranking 16th and 19th respectively.
Injury Report
To summarize the LA Clippers injury report… (note: the Clippers played Saturday so haven’t updated the injury report yet)
- Paul George SF (OUT indefinitely — knee)
- Marcus Morris Sr, PF (questionable—back spasms)
Phoenix Suns
The Suns are locked into the fourth seed and haven’t lost (8-0) in the games Kevin Durant has played. Monte Williams won’t risk his stars playing this match but he might be looking to motivate his reserves to win this match if he prefers a different first-round opponent.
Stats
Phoenix averages 113.6 points per game ranking 17th while shooting 46.8% from the field and 37.4% from the perimeter ranking 23rd and seventh overall.
Defensively opponents score 111.5 points ranking sixth-best. Meanwhile, they limit foes to 46.5% from the field and 35.86% from the perimeter ranking sixth and 13th respectively.

Free LA Clippers vs. Phoenix Suns NBA Prediction:
The Clippers can’t afford to risk losing and falling into the play-in and Monte Williams has made the task that much easier by sitting his starters and best reserves.
The question is the spread and whether the Clippers will also start sitting players if they get a double-digit lead. My guess is Ty Lue will encourage his squad to get up by a large margin early so the choice is made for him.
