The total has gone UNDER in 4 of Golden State's last 5 games.

San Antonio are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games.

The total has gone UNDER in 7 of San Antonio's last 10 games.

Prediction

The Warriors are struggling without their All-Star Steph Curry as they have lost 8 of their last 11 games on the road but they are still fighting with the Mavs for the #3 seed. The Pelicans have been good lately covering the spread in 5 of their last 5 games but they'll be without many key player for this game as they have nothing to play for with the play-in game already locked. The Warriors will be without Thompson an Curry but they still have a lot of talent to win this game. Take the Warriors.

PICK: Warriors -6 (-110)
