Brooklyn finally ended its saga with Kyrie yesterday, but it now leaves the team severely shorthanded against the Clippers tonight. With someone needing to score, our NBA betting picks are banking on Claxton to step up.
The Brooklyn Nets and Dallas Mavericks shook up the sports world on Sunday when they agreed on a deal to send star point guard Kyrie Irving out of Brooklyn. With Durant still recovering from an MCL sprain, significant questions remain about the organization's future plans and if Durant could be the next domino to fall.
With all the talk surrounding Irving and his exit from Brooklyn, basketball still has to be played tonight as the Nets welcome the Los Angeles Clippers to the Barclays Center. The Clippers, winners of seven of their last 10, will look to capitalize on a BK team that will be devoid of a star on the court tonight.Clippers vs Nets picks and predictionshave struggled to stay afloat while Durant rehabs, but they've done as good a job as expected, going 5-7 in his absence.
This season, per 36 minutes, the 23-year-old is averaging 15.9 points per game. Spencer Dinwiddie, who is back with the Nets after the Irving deal, won't be available, leaving Claxton with more responsibilities to score the ball tonight.
