BETTING TRENDS

San Antonio are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games.

San Antonio are 3-8 SU in their last 11 games.

Golden State are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games.

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

Prediction

Steph Curry has avoided any major damage but his status for the rest of the regular season is still in doubt. The Warriors are still very dangerous and they'll be at home where they have lost only 8 games in the season and hold their opponents to 102.49 points per game. The Spurs are also dealing with some injuries and have failed to cover the spread in 5 of their last 6 games. Take the Warriors to cover.

PICK: Warriors -6.5 (-110)
