Portland Looks To Build On Win Over Charlotte

The Trail Blazers outscored the Charlotte Hornets 63-46 in the second half on Monday night to come away with a 124-113 win and cover as 5.5-point favorites. Jerami Grant led the team in scoring with 32 points and added 10 rebounds while Jusuf Nurkic racked up 28 points and 15 rebounds in the win. Portland snapped an 0-3 SU and ATS losing streak with the victory over the Hornets.

Prior to those three losses, the Trail Blazers had gone 4-1 SU and ATS over their previous five games. Damian Lillard is still Portland's leading scorer in 2022-23 averaging 27.5 points per game, but on nights that he isn't at his best on offense like Monday night, this year's Trail Blazers squad has enough depth on offense behind him to pick up the slack.

Golden State Still Winning At Home In Stephen Curry's Absence

The Warriors didn't have three of their biggest weapons on offense Wednesday night at home against the Utah Jazz with Stephen Curry out with a shoulder injury, Andrew Wiggins out with an illness and Klay Thompson getting a rest day on the second night of a back-to-back. Golden State still managed to pull off a 112-107 win as 4.5-point underdogs with Jordan Poole (26 points) and Donte Divincenzo (19 points) leading the way.

The team is now 3-0 SU and 2-0-1 ATS over its last three games in a stretch that also includes a 123-109 win at home over the Memphis Grizzlies as 7-point underdogs. Thompson is expected to return to the starting lineup on Friday, but the Warriors will still be without Curry and Wiggins. 

Trail Blazers Player Prop: Damian Lillard Over 28.5 Points (-130)

Damian Lillard had a rough night in his last game against Charlotte going 5-for-18 from the floor and 1-for-10 on three-point attempts. Facing one of the NBA's worst defenses provides him with the perfect opportunity for a bounce-back performance, which he should take advantage of with a big game.

Warriors Player Prop: Jordan Poole Under 26.5 Points (-104)

Jordan Poole is a talented scorer and is the Warriors' top scoring option with Curry out. He's certainly capable of clearing 26.5 points, but this total is set a bit too high as he has only scored 27 points or more in three of his last 10 games. Look for Poole to finish just under 26.5 points on Friday night.

Trail Blazers: Keys to Win

Portland is 10-10 SU and 12-8 ATS on the road this season. The Trail Blazers are clearly the better team in this matchup, so winning as a Trail Blazers vs Warriors prediction may simply come down to playing to their potential in a very difficult arena to play in.

Warriors: Keys to Win

Donte Divincenzo and Ty Jerome stepped up on offense behind Jordan Poole in the Warriors' most recent upset over Utah. To score another upset over Portland as a Trail Blazers vs Warriors pick, Golden State will need unfamiliar faces to continue to rise to the occasion with Curry and Wiggins out of the lineup.
