Oddsmakers currently have the Spurs listed as 5½-point favorites versus the Warriors, while the game’s total is sitting at 207½.

The Spurs were a 123-93 winner in their most recent outing at home against the Nuggets. They covered the -13-point spread as favorites, while the total score (216) made winners of OVER bettors.

San Antonio is one of the few teams in the NBA that can rival Golden State’s depth and built up their 30-point win on Friday despite stars Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili and Tony Parker combining for just 12 points. Kawhi Leonard went for 20 points on 9-of-13 shooting in the win and has reached double figures in scoring in each of the last 20 games. The Spurs are also getting a boost from reserve big man Aron Baynes, who has posted 18 points in each of the last two games.

Golden State was a 123-110 winner in its last match on the road against the Mavericks. They covered the -6.5-point spread as favorites, while the total score of 233 sent OVER bettors to the payout window.

Golden State reached the second-longest winning streak in franchise history with Saturday’s win, behind a 16-game streak from earlier this season. The Warriors are not going out of their way to rest the starters yet but are keeping an eye on the minutes, especially on back-to-backs, and did not have a starter log more than 30 minutes in Saturday’s win. Golden State has scored at least 100 points in 14 straight games – the longest current streak in the league – and nine of the last 12 wins have come by double figures.

Team record: 63-13 SU,46-29-1 ATS
Current Streak: won 12 straight games.
Golden State is 9-1 ATS in its last 10 games
Golden State is 5-0 SU in its last 5 games

Oddsmakers currently have the Ravens listed as 3½-point favorites versus the Texans, while the game’s total is sitting at 42.

The likely successor to Mallett and Fitzpatrick, rookie Tom Savage, has already been ruled out with a knee injury. O’Brien is letting a battle play out in practice this week between Thad Lewis, who was signed on Nov. 26, and Case Keenum, who was with the team in training camp before being cut and was re-signed off the St. Louis practice squad on Monday. “I’m going to keep that one close to the vest,” O’Brien told reporters of the decision. “Both these guys, Case and Thad, are out there working hard. Right up until game time, that’s going to be the way it is.”

Last time out for Houston, they were a 17-10 loser as they battled the Colts on the road. The Texans earned a push in the match as a +7-point underdog, while 27 combined points moved the game UNDER for totals bettors.

Team record: 7-7 SU,8-5-1 ATS
Houston is 7-18 SU in its last 25 games
The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Houston’s last 5 games
Houston is 4-10 ATS in its last 14 games at home
Houston is 3-10 SU in its last 13 games at home

Baltimore sits in third place in the tightly-packed AFC North, a half-game behind Cincinnati and even with Pittsburgh, which owns the tiebreaker based on a better record within the division. The Ravens only have one more chance to make up a game in the division – Week 17 against Cleveland – and need some help from opponents of both Cincinnati and Pittsburgh. “I’m excited about our team,” Baltimore coach John Harbaugh told reporters. “I like where we’re at. We’re getting better and stronger, and I also think there’s room for improvement, which gives me a lot of encouragement and excitement, because we’ve yet to play our best game, by far.”

Baltimore won its last outing, a 20-12 result against the Jaguars on December 14. The Ravens failed to cover in that game as a -14-point favorite, while the 32 combined points took the game UNDER the total.

Team record: 9-5 SU,8-6 ATS
Baltimore is 4-1 SU in its last 5 games
The total has gone OVER in 4 of Baltimore’s last 5 games on the road
Baltimore is 4-2 ATS in its last 6 games when playing Houston
Baltimore is 7-1 SU in its last 8 games when playing Houston
