The Clippers are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games playing on 2 days rest. The Jazz are 6-1 ATS in the last 7 meetings in LA and 4-1 ATS in the last 5 meetings. The over is 9-3 in Clippers last 12 overall. The over is 5-2 in Jazz last 7 games playing on 0 days rest.This line indicates that the Utah Jazz are going to rest all of their starters with them being locked into the fifth seed. With that being the case, I have no choice but to side with the Los Angeles Clippers, a team that's rested and has every reason to win this game with hopes of getting out of the eighth seed. The Clippers don't have the horses to blow teams out, so I don't like laying these big numbers with them, but I'm not going to back a team that's going to play nothing but backups. It has to be Clippers or pass for me.
