Free Golden State Warriors vs. Los Angeles Lakers NBA Prediction:
When Curry got injured the hope was the Warriors could navigate his absence and play .500 ball. Golden State exceeded those expectations going 7-4 in his absence and have won five in-a-row.
As well as they’re playing winning on the road remains an issue needing resolution with their last five road games all resulting in losses. Given that dynamic it’s a bit risky to take the Dubs especially to cover but I’m rolling with Curry’s return inspiring the squad.
