In the National Basketball Association regular season game, the Los Angeles Lakers will face the Golden State Warriors. The match will take place in Los Angeles on the night of Sunday March 17. The match is scheduled to kick off at 1:30 a.m. Central European Time.
the Los Angeles Lakers
With only 15 games remaining in the regular season, the Lakers have not yet secured a place in the playoffs and risk ending up with nothing. The Lakers are currently in the play-in zone and have a slight lead in 11th place, but breaking into the top 6 will be incredibly difficult. Note the good form of LeBron James and Anthony Davis, who have been carrying the Lakers on their shoulders for several years already.
Warriors of the Golden State
The team has had a disappointing regular season so far, but has managed to slightly improve their results recently. At the moment, the Warriors are slightly behind their next opponent and occupy tenth place in the Western Conference standings, just behind the Lakers. It’s fair to note that Golden State has played two fewer games. Stephen Curry has missed his team’s last three games with an ankle injury, and his participation in the game against the Lakers is still in question.
Interesting facts and face-to-face
- In their last two home games, the Lakers have beaten strong teams like Minnesota and Milwaukee.
- The Warriors have only won one game in their last four.
- Teams typically compete in high-scoring basketball games and in two games this season they have traded wins.
Prediction Los Angeles Lakers vs Golden State Warriors
The Warriors’ chances, given Curry’s absence, appear uncertain. I think the hosts will be closer to victory, but I will bet on a points total higher than 229.5.
