First Basket Prop Bets Picks & Predictions for Tuesday: Thunder vs. Clippers

Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Los Angeles Clippers  

Getting first possession is a crucial component of first-basket betting. That is an aspect both of these teams have struggled with this season. They both have won the tipoff once this season. The one thing that stands out most during the early game is that the Clippers haven’t scored the first basket this season.

Josh Giddey has scored the first basket for the Thunder in two of the three games. During the one game that he didn’t have the first basket, Giddey scored the second. Giddey is involved early and often. That will continue to be the case tonight. Until the Clippers prove that they can consistently score first in a game, the Thunder have the advantage.
