Stephen Nover's NBA Game of the Week
(NBA) LA Clippers vs. Chicago,
Point Spread: -3.50 | -110.00 Chicago (Home)
Result: Win
Paul George played for the first time in three-plus months against the Jazz this past Tuesday helping the Clippers defeat Utah. LA rallied from 25 points to win, 121-115. George looked great in scoring 34 points in 31 minutes.

Three things about that, though.

The game was played in LA. The Clippers had lost five in a row before that victory and George still may not have his full conditioning.

The Clippers are 1-5 in their last six road games, 2-4 ATS, with their lone victory during this span coming against the lowly Pistons by four points. The Clippers lost by 12 points to the Nuggets and by 29 to the Jazz during their past two away contests.

If George isn't at peak efficiency - and it's hard to imagine he would be playing in just his second game back - the Bulls would have the three best players on the court in DeMar DeRozan, Zach LaVine and Nikola Vucevic.

Chicago is 26-10 at home. The Bulls are 23-7 ATS the past 30 times as a home favorite. They beat the Raptors by 14 points and Cavaliers by 10 during their last two home contests.

The Clippers are 16-23 on the road. They are 1-6 ATS the past seven times when facing an above .500 team.
