Oddsmakers currently have the Warriors listed as 6-point favorites versus the Pelicans, while the game’s total is sitting at 205.
In their last action, Golden State was a 123-119 winner on the road against the Pelicans. They failed to cover the -5-point spread as favorites, while the combined score (242) was profitable news for OVER bettors.
Curry finished with 40 points and Klay Thompson added 28, but Draymond Green’s third double-double of the series and Golden State’s rebounding down the stretch were just as big. Curry missed several shots from deep late in regulation but offensive rebounds led to second chances, including Marreese Speights’ offensive board before the game-tying shot. “It was just determination and will,” Green told reporters. “We have a group of guys whose competitive spirits are through the roof. We never give up.”

Anthony Davis went for 29 points and 15 rebounds in the loss but missed a free throw at the end of regulation that would have put the game out of reach and came up empty on a tying attempt in the final seconds of overtime. The 22-year-old also had trouble keeping the Warriors off the offensive glass down the stretch, even when Golden State went to a small lineup. “We’re down 0-3 and it’s a must win and we all know that,” Williams told reporters. ”We had it and we let it go and I can’t say it enough, we just didn’t execute in the fourth quarter.”
