Our Golden State Warriors vs Los Angeles Lakers Prediction
Friday's game, which counts towards the NBA Cup, will be somewhat controversial, as Lendeborg will face Doncic, about whom he said he lost "all respect" due to the Slovenian's complaints about fouls in that Oppenheimer Night game.
As far as betting is concerned, both the Lakers and Warriors produced 3 total games of OVERs, and if Curry has the key hand as in the last game and if several fouls occur, as predicted, the game could be high scoring again.
Our prediction for Warriors vs Lakers is: Over 234.5.
