My Prediction
Golden State Warriors by 14Alright everyone, today we've got a running river against a gold rush, the Washington Wizards visiting the Golden State Warriors. Now, these two franchises have a bit of history together and our friends at the sportsbook seem to favor the Warriors quite heavily today. Now, let's take a stroll through some stats before we jump to conclusions.
First, let's take a peep at the Wizards. You've got young Jordan Poole coming off an impressive last month, averaging a slick 23.8 points per game. Oh and don't forget about Alexandre Sarr, who's been contributing steadily with 13.5 points per game, not to mention a cool 7.2 rebounds over the same period. Malcolm Brogdon's been fairly solid too, providing steady assistance with an average of 5.3 dimes per game recently.
Now, over to the Bay Area - it's quite clear to see why the Warriors have been the pick of the litter. Stephen Curry's been raining threes as usual, and dunking 22.9 points per game into his stat sheet over the last month. We've also seen Jonathan Kuminga coming up in the charts, adding a neat 20.1 points on average and 6.4 rebounds per game in recent times. Dennis Schroder's numbers have dipped a little recently, but he's still throwing in double-digit points on a regular basis.
Based on their past encounters, if my memory serves me well, seems like the Warriors have had the upper hand against the Wizards. All previous face-offs have seen the Warriors oust the Wizards, some by pretty comfortable margins.
I'm not a fortune-teller, but given their recent performances and the head-to-head stats, it is pretty clear that the Warriors have their noses ahead. Wizards have been struggling this season, reflected in their dismal standings. The Warriors are just about even this season, but they've been holding their own in the tough Western Conference.
So, if the sea was turned to paper and all the trees into pens, I might just start writing about how this game might turn out. But for now, I'll take the easy way out and just predict the outcome.
