Golden State Warriors vs Los Angeles Lakers Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Kennedy Kechula | in NBA Prediction
The Golden State Warriors will host the LA Lakers seeking to make a winning return in the NBA after the All-Star break. Two and a half games separate these two teams in the Western Conference with ninth-placed LA having the advantage over 10th-placed Golden State. The Warriors went into the recently concluded All-Star weekend in exceptional form. They will be keen to pick up from where they had left. Steve Kerr’s men have won six of their last seven games. They got back to winning ways last time out by defeating the Jazz 140-137 away from home. It was their 27th win in 53 outings this season. This is a crucial match in a hotly-contested playoff race. Chris Paul remains sidelined for the Warriors while Gary Payton II has been listed as ‘Questionable’ for this game. The Warriors are averaging 119.7 points which is the sixth-best record.
The Lakers also went into the mid-season break in sublime form. Darvin Ham’s men have also won six of their last seven games and are on a three-game winning run. They also defeated the Jazz 138-122 right before the All-Star break to register their 30th win of the season. The visitors are at the moment four games above .500 and will be keen to keep it that way. Having dominated this matchup over the last couple of years, LA will be confident of another win here. The Lakers have won eight of the last 10 meetings with Golden State. They secured a close 145-144 victory after extra time in the first meeting of the season last month. LeBron James will not be available for this match as he is dealing with an ankle issue. He is one of eight players listed on the team’s injury report for this game. Jarred Vanderbilt, Gabe Vincent, Christian Wood, and Maxwell Lewis have all been ruled out as well. Cam Reddish has a 50% chance of playing while Anthony Davis is listed as ‘Probable’. The Lakers are averaging 117.1 points a night.
