The New York Knicks are set to face the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday, March 7, 2025, at 10:30 PM ET at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood, CA.
Betting Odds:
Spread: The Clippers are favored by 7.5 points.
Over/Under: The total points line is set at 218.5.
Team News and Recent Performance:
The Knicks are coming off two consecutive close losses against the Warriors and the Lakers. In their recent game against the Lakers, key player Jalen Brunson suffered a leg injury and is expected to miss the upcoming game against the Clippers.
The Clippers have a 4-6 record over their last ten games. James Harden recently delivered a 50-point performance, and Kawhi Leonard is returning to form. However, they will be without leading scorer Norman Powell and Ben Simmons due to injuries.
Prediction:
Given the Knicks’ injury concerns, particularly the anticipated absence of Jalen Brunson, and considering the Clippers’ home-court advantage, the Clippers are favored to win this matchup. The spread of 7.5 points reflects this expectation.
