The Toronto Raptors and Los Angeles Clippers are both jockeying for playoff positions in their respective conferences, and with just a few weeks left in the regular season, neither can afford to give games away.

My Raptors vs. Clippers predictions and NBA picks expect Toronto to cover at the Intuit Dome in Inglewood on Wednesday, March 25.
Raptors vs Clippers prediction
Raptors vs Clippers best bet: Raptors +4 (-110)
The Toronto Raptors close out a five-game road trip, four of which were on the West Coast, with a matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers tonight.
Despite a couple of tough losses, the Raptors remain competitive — at least in the eyes of sportsbooks. Toronto has gone 5-1 against the spread in its last six games, thanks in large part to an offense that has started to click.
The Raptors rank 14th in offensive rating since the All-Star break and fourth over this six-game stretch. That has a lot to do with the return of center Jakob Poeltl, allowing them to space the floor better and run more pick-and-rolls.

Meanwhile, the Clippers continue to be inconsistent, despite getting great efforts out of former Raptor Kawhi Leonard recently.
Offense hasn’t been the issue. L.A. ranks just 19th in defensive rating since the All-Star break and is a big reason why it’s just 10-8 during that period. The Clippers also rank 24th in 3-point shooting percentage in those games.
On top of that, the Clips have underperformed as favorites in recent weeks, going 2-4-1 ATS in their last seven games when laying points.
The Raptors will rely on their revamped offense to keep this game close throughout, so I’ll happily back them to cover this spread.

Raptors vs Clippers same-game parlay
The Clippers’ defensive issues aren’t just on the perimeter; they also rank 20th in opponent points in the paint per game post-ASB.
Meaning Poeltl will be a problem for them. The Raps’ big man has topped 17 points in three straight games.
The Raptors won’t be the only ones cooking on offense in Inglewood tonight. Toronto’s perimeter defense has slipped lately, ranking 27th in opponent 3-point shooting percentage, and Kawhi is on fire.
Leonard is averaging 30 points over his last 11 games while shooting 42.5% from three. Add Kawhi Over 2.5 threes.

Our “from downtown” SGP: Three’s company
Both teams have struggled with switches on the perimeter lately, so it may be on the nose for our “from downtown” SGP, but let’s let it fly.
Brook Lopez is fresh off a 5-for-6 shooting night from deep, and he’ll be good for two made threes against this putrid Toronto perimeter D.
Meanwhile, Quickley and Barrett’s 3-point volume is more than high enough to reach these totals in Inglewood, thanks to L.A.’s shaky D.
