Take a quick glance over LA Clippers vs Phoenix Suns predictions ahead of game 3 of the western conference finals. The Los Angeles Clippers are ready to take on the confident Phoenix Suns once again. LA Clippers have definitely impressed everyone. However, their confidence might have gone down after game 1 and 2 losses against Suns. Without star Kawhi Leonard, things have messed up but the team is holing on. The team has been in a duel with Phoenix Suns since the start. Now as the team goes down 2-0 in the series there is still lot of game left.

The Phoenix Suns have nailed down their best ever game series in the recent past. Game 2 was a huge highlight as Deandre Ayton dunked to close the arena from Jae Crowder’s outlet pass. LA Clippers had their opportunity to take the lead for good late in the final period, but Paul George missed two free throws that proved to be costly. Big news for Phoenix as Chris Paul returns to the line-up on Thursday from health and safety protocols, but Kawhi Leonard remains out for the Clips with a knee sprain.

LA Clippers vs Phoenix Suns Match Preview

The LA Clippers have been deprived with tough luck. After losing the 2 opening games in Phoenix, Clippers will look back at their mistakes. Their poor ball rotation was over shadowed by their incredible shooting. On paper, Paul George had a solid night. He had 26 points, six dimes, and six boards on 10-for-23 shooting from the field. While he did also score his team’s last six points in the fourth quarter, it was his struggles at the line that gave Phoenix the chance to win it. Now they cannot afford another loss.

Devin Booker had a quieter night with just 20 points, it was the energetic Cam Payne who showed out and led the offense. The former Chicago Bull, who was out of the league for several years before signing with the Suns in the offseason, dropped 29 while also dishing out nine assists. While the game 2 winded up, LA Clippers were on lead by a single point. But Deandre Ayton’s huge dunk made things clear. Phoenix Suns are making a statement in the conference finals now.
