Latest Betting Notes: Warriors
Golden State rolled to a 129-117 win and cover as a 4-point favorite at home against the Toronto Raptors on Friday night. Stephen Curry led the way on offense with 35 points and 11 assists while Klay Thompson recorded 29 points and eight rebounds. Curry is back in form on offense after returning from injury earlier this month, averaging 33 points over his last five games.
The Warriors improved to 5-3 SU and ATS over their last eight games with the victory against Toronto. Curry’s return has sparked Golden State’s offense, which has scored at least 116 points in its last eight games and is averaging 124.3 points over that stretch.
Latest Betting Notes: Thunder
The Thunder continued their red-hot run through January with a 112-100 win at home on Friday night over the Cleveland Cavaliers. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 35 points and added eight assists in the win. Gilgeous-Alexander ranks fifth in the NBA in scoring, averaging 30.9 points per game.
Since January 6, Oklahoma City is 8-3 SU and 10-1 ATS. That run includes a 6-1 ATS record as an underdog with four outright upsets. The Thunder have allowed 106 points or less in each of their last four wins and are 9-0 SU and ATS the last nine times they’ve allowed 110 points or less.
Warriors Player Prop: Klay Thompson OVER 21.5 Points (-122)
Klay Thompson has been on a roll for the Warriors lately after getting off to a slow start to the season. Since Christmas Day, Thompson has averaged 27.2 points per game in 12 contests. He has scored 24 points or more in all but two of those 12 games.
Look for that trend to continue with another game with at least 22 points on Monday night. Golden State’s offense has been red-hot in recent weeks, and with Stephen Curry playing well and opening up the floor, Thompson should get plenty of good looks to keep things rolling in this one.
Thunder Player Prop: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander OVER 31.5 Points (-113)
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is in the zone right now. Gilgeous-Alexander is always a dangerous scorer and is one of the NBA’s most underrated superstars. But over his last four games, he has scored at least 34 points each time and is averaging 35.5 points over that stretch.
The Warriors rank 26th in the NBA in scoring defense, allowing 118 points per game. The total in this matchup is set sky-high at 242 points. All signs point to a high-scoring game, which should mean that Gilgeous-Alexander will continue his recent dominance with another scoring effort of 32 points or more.
