Warriors at Raptors Picks and Predictions
Prediction
Warriors 120, Raptors 114
Money line
PASS.
The Warriors have been strong lately and have been even better on the road. The Raptors are 3-4 in a row in their last 7 games and 1-4 at home in that stretch. They’re not worth a moneyline play either.
Against the spread
WARRIORS BET -2.5 (-108).
Golden State has won 5 of its last 6 games and has won 7 in a row on the road, covering each. Six of those 7 wins have also been by double digits. The Warriors continue to dominate and they will have the most dynamic player on the court in Curry.
The Raptors made a trade mid-season and have struggled since. They are 5-7 straight in their last 12 games, but 6-6 ATS in those games. However, they are just 2-3 ATS in their last 5 home games.
Given the difference in success in this situation, let’s take WARRIORS -2.5 (-108).
More less
LEAN LESS THAN 237 (-110).
The Raptors have gone under in 5 of their last 8 games, scoring under 100 in 2 of them. The Warriors have used defense as a propeller for this recent success. They have gone under in 5 straight games and in 10 of their last 12 games, allowing 112 or less in 4 of their last 5 games.
Golden State has some solid defensive players like F Green Draymond, but he may have tired legs after a prime-time showdown Thursday night. That said, take UNDER 237 (-110).
