Why the Warriors can cover
Golden State is coming off a 118-108 loss to the Lakers on Saturday despite having seven players reach double-figures in scoring. Andrew Wiggins led the Warriors with 20 points, but Stephen Curry had an off night, finishing with 13 points on 4-for-17 shooting. However, he did manage nine assists and two steals.
The 10-time NBA All-Star and two-time league MVP is averaging 22.3 points and 6.4 assists per game, but he’s been in a bit of a shooting rut, going 16-for-51 from the 3-point line in his last five games. However, the Warriors have covered the spread in eight of their last nine games against Northwest division opponents. Additionally, Golden State could be facing a Utah team without Walker Kessler (shoulder) and John Collins (illness), who both missed Monday’s game. See which team to back at SportsLine.
Why the Jazz can cover
Meanwhile, the Jazz are coming off a 125-110 loss to the Bucks on Monday night. Lauri Markkanen and Collin Sexton led Utah with 19 points each in the loss, and the Jazz did get positive contributions from their reserves, with 53 bench points while playing a 10-man rotation.
However, Utah shot just 41.0% from the floor as a team while Milwaukee shot 60.5% from the field. Despite having the front office seemingly focused on next year’s draft class and the franchise’s future, the Jazz have managed to cover the spread in 13 of their last 19 games. They also get to face a shorthanded Warriors squad missing Draymond Green (calf) and Jonathan Kuminga (ankle). See which team to back at SportsLine.
