Good teams win, great teams cover. The Spurs are not only 17-2 since the start of February, but a very profitable 13-5-1 ATS as well, and with the Clippers missing Kawhi, my NBA predictions are betting that run continues tonight.

The San Antonio Spurs are the hottest team in the NBA, and now Victor Wembanyama is making a strong case to win NBA MVP.

Just how good have Wemby and the Spurs been? They're nearly double-digit road favorites for tonight’s matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers.

My Spurs vs. Clippers predictions and NBA picks explain why it’ll be a long night for the home team in this Western Conference showdown.

Spurs vs Clippers prediction

Spurs vs Clippers best bet: Spurs -8.5 (-110)

The San Antonio Spurs are an NBA-best 17-2 since the start of February, and Victor Wembanyama didn’t play in one of those two losses.

The Spurs lead the NBA in net rating over that stretch, which has made them an excellent bet, going 13-5-1 ATS.

The Los Angeles Clippers have been playing better basketball, but Kawhi Leonard is listed as doubtful, and one of their biggest weaknesses is their depth, already ranking 21st in bench points per game.

The Spurs' talent and depth will become apparent over the course of the game, so lay points as they pull away late.

Spurs vs Clippers same-game parlay

Wemby has been having his own block party lately, averaging 4.3 blocks per game over 12 games since the All-Star break, blocking 4+ shots 10 times over that stretch.

And with Kawhi out, someone’s going to have to score for L.A., so give me Darius Garland Over 20.5 points. The newest Clipper has topped this number in each of his last four games.

When his dreams of becoming the next Steve Nash died, all Andrew "Taco" Caley wanted to do was write about sports, something he's been doing at Covers for more than a decade. A Journalism School grad from Holland College in Charlottetown, PEI, Andrew previously worked at The Chronicle Herald and Star Metro, but knew in his heart that his future lay in sports. He began at Covers as a news editor and has now done everything under the sun when it comes to content. His work has been seen on TSN, Sportsnet, VSiN, and CBS. These days Andrew's betting expertise is focused on his favorite teams; the Toronto Blue Jays and Toronto Raptors. He's also an avid college football fan and bettor. He can't be friends with you if you don't appreciate a Service Academy Under. The sportsbook where he does the bulk of his betting is bet365 thanks to its numerous prop betting options and competitive odds. His best advice? Find the balance between the numbers and what you see on the playing field. Then find the best price using multiple books. And don’t ask him where the nickname Taco comes from. It's not an interesting story. Seriously.
