Trail Blazers vs. Warriors Prediction

The Trail Blazers looked solid in their skid-breaking win over the Hornets this week. Power forward Jerami Grant led the charge on offense with 32 points. Their defense also looked considerably stronger than in their recent setbacks against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Warriors, meanwhile, have adjusted well to life without Stephen Curry lately. Point guard Jordan Poole racked up 26 points in their recent win over the 112-107 Utah Jazz. Tonight, the Warriors will enjoy the home-court advantage. Given the often astounding difference in playing quality the team have shown at home compared to on the road this season, playing in Oakland could well net them their fourth straight win.

Prediction: Warriors +2.5 (-110)
