NBA Same Game Multi Tips
Here are my NBA same game multi tips for the Lakers against the Clippers.
- 1st Leg – Clippers +6.5: The Clippers kicked off the season half of the season with a huge 1 pt win over the Nuggets and I can see them carrying the momentum in Saturday’s LA derby. They’ve also covered in 4 of their last 5 games. The Lakers could be a bit rusty too as this is their first game since the All-Star break.
- 2nd Leg – Under 225.5: In this matchup, the Under is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings. The Under is also 4-2 in the Lakers last 6 games. The total has gone Under in 4 of their last 6 involving the Clippers.
