Nicolas Batum Assists Prop is currently Over/Under 0.5 (-224/+159).
The money has been on the Over as it opened 0.5 @ -194 before it was bet up to 0.5 @ -224.
FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:
Offensive rebounds preserve possession and lead to further chances for scoring and assists, and the LA Clippers rank 6th-best in the league without the home court advantage with 13.0 offensive rebounds per game this year.
FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
The LA Clippers have played at the 2nd-slowest pace in the league over the last 5 games.
The Clippers are expected to suffer a drop-off in possessions today from competing against the 9th-least up-tempo pace-of-play offense in the NBA this year (the Rockets).
Nicolas Batum will not have the benefit of the home court advantage in this game. Playing away from your home stadium tends to decrease player production in all facets of the game.
