The Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers meet head-to-head in Summer League action on Tuesday night. The Lakers cannot get into a groove in Las Vegas and have dropped each of their first two games. Cole Swider poured in 21 points and 4 rebounds in the team's double overtime loss to the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday.

Meanwhile, the Clippers secured a 94-76 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies in their only Summer League contest. It was a balanced effort as five players scored in double-digits, led by Reggie Perry's 17 points off the bench. The Clippers allowed Memphis to shoot only 26.3% from three-point range.

Lakers vs Clippers Prediction & Pick

The Lakers have not shot better than 40% in either of their first two games and have been out-rebounded by a combined total of 99 to 74. To make matters worse, 2022 second-rounder Max Christie and undrafted rookie Scottie Pippen Jr. shot 7-for-25 from the floor on Sunday (28.0%).

What may have been the most impressive part of the Clippers' win over the Grizzlies was the fact that Memphis only shot 12 free throws. That is not typical in the NBA Summer League. Shaun Fein has his team ready to play a style of basketball that promotes physicality without racking up dumb fouls.

Back the Clippers to keep things rolling and cover the -3.5 spread (-118).
