Through 3 Quarters

The point spread is against the Sacramento Kings, but thus far the points are on their side. After three quarters it's looking more and more like their high-powered offense is just too much for the Los Angeles Clippers as the Kings lead 99-76.

Point guard Davion Mitchell has led the way so far for Sacramento, as he has 20 points. Those points put Mitchell near his season high of 22.

Los Angeles has been led by center Ivica Zubac, who so far has 17 points along with seven rebounds.

Sacramento's lead is the biggest they have had this year going into the fourth quarter.

What to Know

The Los Angeles Clippers' homestand continues as they prepare to take on the Sacramento Kings at 10:30 p.m. ET Dec. 1 at Staples Center. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W.'

The Clippers received a tough blow on Monday as they fell 123-104 to the New Orleans Pelicans. Small forward Paul George (27 points) was the top scorer for Los Angeles.

Meanwhile, Sacramento found themselves the reluctant recipients of an unpleasant 117-92 punch to the gut against the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday. Shooting guard Tyrese Haliburton wasn't much of a difference maker for Sacramento; Haliburton finished with only six points on 2-for-10 shooting in his 32 minutes on the court.

Los Angeles is the favorite in this one, with an expected 6-point margin of victory. They have failed bettors playing the spread in their past four games, so buyers beware.

The Clippers were close but no cigar when the two teams previously met in February as they fell 113-110 to Sacramento. Can Los Angeles avenge their defeat, or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll soon find out.
