Simon Dalton presents his prediction for the NBA match.
The teams are set to face off for the second time in two days. Last night, the Warriors emerged victorious with a 124:106 win. In the absence of Stephen Curry, Buddy Hield stepped up, scoring 28 points. Can the Pelicans find a way to respond and take revenge?
Golden State Warriors
The Warriors have started the season with unexpected momentum, impressing on both ends of the court. They are averaging 123.7 points per game (2nd in the league), while conceding only 102 points per game. Additionally, the Warriors lead the league in rebounding, with an average of 54.7 boards per game.
New Orleans Pelicans
The Pelicans have shown rather inconsistent form early in the season. Team leader Zion Williamson has yet to reach his peak performance. The Pelicans rank in the bottom ten for both offensive and defensive efficiency, averaging 109.7 points scored while allowing 115.7 points per game.
Golden State Warriors vs New Orleans Pelicans Prediction
We believe the Golden State Warriors are capable of securing a back-to-back win. The difference in player quality is significant, especially in terms of game balance and consistency. We suggest betting on the Warriors to win.
