On the Clippers' end, power forward Paul George's status for tonight is up in the air due to knee issues stemming from the Spurs game over the weekend. Worse still, small guard Luke Kennard is definitely sitting out tonight due to a calf injury.

On the Jazz front, point guard Mike Conley is out of tonight's game due to a popliteus strain in his left leg. Small forward Rudy Gay will also be on the sidelines tonight due to a left finger sprain. The injury will likely cause him to miss the rest of the month.

Utah Jazz vs. LA Clippers Betting Prediction

It's been three weeks since the Jazz last defeated the Clippers. Beating the LA outfit by eight points, the Jazz looked noticeably sharper beyond the three-point line for most of the game. They ultimately took the fourth quarter 26-17.

Despite this looking bad for the Clippers, it's worth keeping in mind that they have displayed considerably more focus and aggression against the Spurs recently. There, the Clippers dropped 21 triples on their outmatched foes. The Clippers are, overall, in much better form and focus than they were this time last month. Presuming Paul George makes it to tonight's game, and as the LA team continues to show off their rock-solid defense, it could be payback time against the Jazz.

Prediction: LA Clippers -3 (-112)
