The Phoenix Suns and LA Clippers have already played twice this season and both teams have a win over the other already. They will face off again on Saturday night, with both teams looking to move closer to the .500 mark with a win here. Before tip-off from Intuit Dome, you can find my Suns vs Clippers prediction below.
Our Suns vs Clippers Pick
Pick: Clippers -4.5
Confidence: ★★★☆☆
Game Snapshot
- Matchup: Phoenix Suns @ Los Angeles Clippers
- Date & Time: Saturday, November 8, 2025, 10:30 PM ET
- Venue: Intuit Dome, Inglewood, California
- Broadcast: ESPN
Key Storylines
- The Suns are getting a major boost. Jalen Green made his Suns debut in the recent game vs the Clippers, delivering 29 points and six made threes in about 23 minutes. That kind of offensive spark matters for a Suns team that traded away Kevin Durant in the offseason. The Suns also have Devin Booker leading the way and strong three-point shooters around him.
- The Clippers are a little shorthanded. Kawhi Leonard (right ankle) remains out. But James Harden could be back after he missed the most recent game for personal reasons. Harden’s return could help the Clippers exact revenge after the Suns beat LA on Thursday night.
- The Suns are 0‑4 on the road so far this season, while the Clippers are 3‑2 at home. But these teams have split their two games against each other and this matchup could go either way.
- The key to this game will be adjustments from both coaches after these teams faced off just a couple of nights ago.

Final Thoughts
I think that the Clippers will win and cover the spread at home on Saturday night. Home-court advantage has been a huge factor in this season series so far and that should continue here. The return of James Harden will also make a huge impact for the Clippers here and I’ll lay the points with LA at Intuit Dome here.
