Warriors vs Clippers Prediction: Golden State to Cover the Spread
Warriors Aim for Road Victory
Preview and Betting Odds
The Golden State Warriors will face off against the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday night in what promises to be a highly contested matchup. The Warriors are currently listed as 5-point underdogs on the road, but our prediction is that they will cover that spread and emerge victorious.
Golden State has been in impressive form lately, winning six of their last eight games. They will be looking to continue that momentum against a Clippers team that has also been playing well, having won four of their last six.
The key for the Warriors in this game will be to limit the effectiveness of Clippers star Kawhi Leonard. Leonard has been averaging 24.5 points per game this season and will be the main threat to Golden State's defense.
However, the Warriors have a number of players who can step up and make an impact. Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Jordan Poole are all capable of putting up big numbers, and they will need to do so if they want to win this game.
The Clippers will also need to be at their best to beat the Warriors. They will need to play tough defense and hit their shots from the outside. If they can do that, they have a chance to win this game.
Overall, we expect a tight contest throughout, but our Warriors vs Clippers prediction is that Golden State will cover the five-point spread on the road. Access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list. Lines last updated at 4:18 pm.
