Season series: Warriors lead 1-0.
The Warriors lost to the Chicago Bulls 125-122 at home Thursday, failing to cover as an 8.5-point favorite. Golden State has lost 2 of its last 3 yet has won 4 of its last 6. It has covered in each of its wins. The Warriors are 33-27 against the spread (ATS) on the season. They are led by G Stephen Curry, who is averaging 26.9 points per game. He’s out for this one, though.
The Spurs lost to the Sacramento Kings 131-129 Thursday, covering as a 12-point road favorite. They have lost 2 straight and 7 of their last 9. However, they have covered in 6 of those 9 and are 31-32 ATS on the season. San Antonio is led by rookie F Victor Wembanyama, who is averaging 20.7 points per game. He’s not playing either, though.

Spurs at Warriors picks and predictions
Prediction
Warriors 118, Spurs 111
Moneyline
PASS.
Both teams will be without their top scoring options, and with Golden State being a deep roster and at home, it should come out on top but certainly isn’t worth a play on the moneyline.
Against the spread
BET SPURS +11 (-114).
San Antonio has been a covering machine as of late, covering in 4 of its last 5 games. It has covered in 6 of its last 8 as well, being an underdog in all 8. The Spurs have actually covered in every game in their last 8 in which they have been an underdog of more than 7 (5 games).
The Spurs have competent players like F Keldon Johnson as well, so without their star rookie, they do have some firepower. While the Warriors have a similar roster and could play competent basketball without Curry, they are more reliant on the superstar and could struggle. Golden State is just 1-2 ATS in its last 3 home games.
That said, back SPURS +11 (-114).
Over/Under
LEAN UNDER 227 (-108).
The Warriors have gone Under in 8 of their last 9 games, either scoring or allowing fewer than 100 in 3 of their last 5. Without Curry, they may not have as efficient offensive sets either.
The Spurs are 2-4 O/U in their last 6 and have struggled to score, notching 110 or fewer in 3 of their last 6. Neither team has its leading scorer taking the court, and that could hurt the flow offensively.
Back UNDER 227 (-108).
