Top NBA picks for Wednesday, April 15
After simulating both games 10,000 times, the model is backing the Warriors to stay within the 5.5-point spread in the Warriors vs. Clippers matchup.
The Clippers have had the upper hand overall against the Warriors in recent seasons, but recent games been extremely tight. Los Angles has only beaten Golden State by more than five points one time since the start of the last season. The Warriors won’t have Jimmy Butler (knee) in the postseason, but they do have a healthy Steph Curry and Draymond Green.
The model is projecting a two-possession game, making the Warriors (+5.5) the value play against the spread.
