Chris Paul
After Gary Payton II returned to the rotation, the Warriors will be without only point guard Chris Paul, who is still recovering from hand surgery. On the Clippers' side, star forward Kawhi Leonard will miss the game due to a sprained left adductor. P.J. Tucker and Bones Hyland are not injured, but have been excused by the team for the match and will only return after the All-Star weekend break.
This will be the fourth and final meeting between the Pacific Division rivals this season
The game takes place from 00:00 (Brasília time) - early Wednesday morning (14) to Thursday morning (15) - and will be broadcast in Brazil by ESPN 2 and the Star+ streaming service. This will be the fourth and final meeting between the Pacific Division rivals this season. The Warriors were victorious in the first meeting, but were defeated in the next two.
Clippers come back from defeat
Looking to extend their five-game winning streak, the Golden State Warriors host the Los Angeles Clippers at the Chase Center on Wednesday (14). The team from the "City of Angels" are coming off a defeat to the current Western Conference leaders, the Minnesota Timberwolves, but are still in the hunt for the top spot with just three defeats in their last 13 encounters.
Golden State Warriors vs Los Angeles Clippers Prediction - Clippers win
The Los Angeles Clippers are the favorites. The team of Kawhi and company has a good record and a better record than their opponents. The away factor is important, as they have 15 wins in 26 games away from home. In addition, they are much more complete than their opponents in every way - whether in attack or defense. On the other hand, the Warriors come into the game with an uneven record, with 13 defeats and 13 wins in 26 games in their home arena. Therefore, based on the tools available and a squad in better shape, a good bet is for the Los Angeles Clippers to win.
Los Angeles Clippers - Current form
The Los Angeles Clippers come into this match as favorites. The team, which has had a great campaign, has advantages. The franchise is in great form and has a single goal: to win its first NBA title. The team has a high-level supporting cast and its main players, Kawhi Leonard, Paul George and James Harden, are playing at a high level - as well as Westbrook coming off the bench.
In their last 10 games, they've won eight. Therefore, it's one of the teams that has the potential to come out strong in the post-season and fight for the title. They are one of the favorites. The team is in 3rd place in the Western Conference.
Golden State Warriors - Current form
The Golden State Warriors come into this match as underdogs. The team, which has had an uneven season, has disadvantages. The franchise has had an inconsistent campaign so far, as it finds itself at the bottom of the table. Despite Stephen Curry's good season, the supporting cast is not at its best, with Klay Thompson not at his peak, questionable choices by coach Steve Kerr and Draymond Green at an unstable moment, for example, with a ban from the league.
As a result, the team has fallen in production and is having a bad time. The team is in 11th place in the Western Conference and is out of the playoffs so far.

Golden State Warriors vs LA Clippers prediction
The Warriors' form is very favorable, to the point where they stand out as favorites for the match, however, the Clippers have one of the best squads of the season and have achieved some really surprising victories, being one of the franchises in contention for the title this season. That's why, despite being underdogs, our guess for the clash between the Golden State Warriors and the Los Angeles Clippers is that the Clippers will win, breaking the Warriors' four-game winning streak when they face the Clippers at the Chase Center.
Clippers have managed to revive their fans' enthusiasm
Despite an underwhelming start to the season, the Clippers have managed to revive their fans' enthusiasm. Russell Westbrook's entrance from the bench and James Harden's harmony with the team, especially in the pick-and-roll game with forward Ivica Zubac, were crucial contributions to this turnaround.
Warriors are going through a turbulent period
The Warriors are going through a turbulent period, occupying tenth place in the Western Conference, with uncertainty hanging over the performance of Andrew Wiggins, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green. This is all the more frustrating given the excellent performance of Stephen Curry, one of the league's leading scorers
Kawhi Leonard
To face the Golden State Warriors, the Clippers will have the important absence of Kawhi Leonard due to adductor problems.
Golden State Warriors
The Golden State Warriors close in on the play-in zone in the Western Conference, occupying tenth place with a record of 26 wins and 25 defeats. Coming off a good start, the team has won its last five games and its most recent victim was the Utah Jazz.
In their 129-107 win over the Jazz, the Warriors shot 48% overall and 45.5% from three-point range. Their most outstanding players were Klay Thompson, with 26 points, six rebounds and two assists, Stephen Curry, who recorded a double-double of 25 points and ten baskets, as well as six rebounds, three steals and a steal, and Andrew Wiggins, with 17 points and two rebounds.
Los Angeles Clippers
On the other side of the court we have the Los Angeles Clippers, who are fighting for the top of the West with their 35 wins and 17 losses. Tyronn Lue's side have won seven of their last ten games. However, they are coming off a defeat in a direct clash against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
In the game lost to Minnesota, the score ended 121-100. In that game, the Clippers converted 40.5% of their total shots and 32.1% from the perimeter. Their most productive players were Paul George, who had 18 points, six rebounds and three assists, Kawhi Leonard, with 18 points, four rebounds and a pass, and James Harden, who had 17 points, two rebounds, six assists and a steal.
TIME AND PLACE!
Closing out another round of the 2023/24 NBA season, the Golden State Warriors and the Los Angeles Clippers play a Western Conference clash at the Chase Center in San Francisco, California. The match is scheduled to start on Thursday (15) at 00:00 (Brasília time).
The Golden State Warriors come into the game after beating the Utah Jazz in the last round. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Clippers lost their head-to-head against the Minnesota Timberwolves in their most recent outing. As both teams are going through a similar period, it's more difficult to predict a winner here. However, due to the fact that the game is being played at the Chase Center and Stephen Curry is in a magical phase, as well as the absence of Kawhi Leonard, the final score market predicts a Golden State Warriors victory.
The Warriors are gradually returning to the offensive performance they're known for and, since Draymond Green's return, their defense has clicked into place. However, the Clippers' offensive power is very strong, with three strong threats to Golden State's basket, and this should make for a very tight game in the early hours of the morning. Therefore, our alternative guess is the over market, with the last game of the day having more than 229 points on the scoreboard.
