The LA Clippers took an 118-113 OT loss at Cleveland Friday night, making them an auto-fade for me here the next night. The Clippers are banged up and Blake Griffin and the rest of the starters were forced to log heavy minutes in the defeat. Note that Clippers are 0-4 ATS in their last four games playing on no rest.

The Charlotte Hornets did also take a loss last night then they fell 123-120 at Chicago. They have the luxury of not coming off an OT though, and managed to spread out the minutes better among their players.

The Clippers have lost six straight and the Hornets five in a row. I like the home team to come through and and its skid here at Spectrum Center Saturday night.

My selection is an 8* play on Charlotte Hornets.
