Golden State Has Been Slumping In December

The Warriors suffered back-to-back losses on Tuesday and Wednesday night this week and struggled on defense in both games, losing to the Milwaukee Bucks 128-111 and the Indiana Pacers 125-119. Stephen Curry scored 38 points and recorded seven rebounds and seven assists in 30 minutes of action against the Pacers. Curry exited the game late in the third quarter with a shoulder injury that is expected to keep the Warriors star out for at least a few weeks.

Golden State is now 1-4 SU and 2-3 ATS over its last five games. The Warriors will be tasked with trying to turn things around without Curry, who is averaging 30 points per game this season. Draymond Green is also listed as questionable against Philadelphia with a quad injury.

Joel Embiid Is The NBA's Leading Scorer After Recent Hot Streak

Joel Embiid continued his fantastic play in December with 31 points and seven rebounds in Philadelphia's 123-103 blowout win over the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday night. Embiid has scored at least 31 points in each of his last five games and is averaging 39.2 points per game through his first five games played in December. The 76ers are 3-0 SU and ATS over their last three games.

Since Sportsbook 2022-23 with a disappointing 5-7 SU and ATS run, the 76ers have turned things around with a 10-5 SU and 11-4 ATS record over their last 15 games. Philadelphia has climbed into fifth place in the Eastern Conference and will enter Friday's action sitting six games behind the Boston Celtics for the top spot in the conference.

Warriors: Keys to Win

With Stephen Curry and Andrew Wiggins both out, Klay Thompson and Jordan Poole are both going to need to step up to pick up the slack on offense. Golden State will also need to start playing significantly better on defense this Friday night to cover the spread or pull off an upset as a Warriors vs 76ers prediction.

76ers: Keys to Win

Joel Embiid has been unstoppable in recent weeks, and on Friday he'll be facing a Warriors defense that ranks 26th in the NBA in scoring allowing 116.8 points per game. If Embiid and the 76ers keep up their recent level of play, it should be enough to score a win and cover as a Warriors vs 76ers pick.
