Warriors vs. Pistons: Prediction, point spread, odds, over/under, betting picks

The Golden State Warriors visit the Detroit Pistons on Friday, and if you’re looking to do some last-minute betting research, you’re in luck! We’ll give you the latest point spread, money line odds and over-under number, as well as the information you’ll need to make the smartest bet on Tipico Sportsbook.

The game tips off at 4 p.m. PT and can be seen on NBC Sports Bay Area and Bally Sports Detroit

The Warriors are playing the second night of a back-to-back after beating the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday night. Steph Curry dropped 40 points in the game and hit nine threes, and the Warriors needed a fourth quarter comeback after entering the fourth quarter down 13. The Pistons (4-10) have won three of their last five games, but have yet to beat a team with a winning record.

Warriors at Pistons notable injuries:

Golden State: The Warriors have not yet issued an injury report for Friday but Andre Iguodala (left hip injury management), Klay Thompson (Achilles injury management) and James Wiseman (right knee injury management) missed Thursday’s game. Steph Curry was listed as questionable for Thursday with a hip contusion, but played anyway and scored 40 points vs. Cleveland.

Detroit: Isaiah Livers (conditioning) and Kelly Olynyk (left knee sprain) are out.

  • Point spread: Warriors -6.5
  • Money line: Warriors -300 / Pistons +230
  • Over-under: 209.5

Advice and prediction

I wouldn’t be surprised if Steph Curry’s minutes were limited on Friday as he’s dealing with a hip issue and playing a back-to-back, but the Warriors shouldn’t need him to have a huge scoring night in order to come away from Detroit with a cover. The Pistons struggle to score against solid defenses, and the Warriors have the best in the NBA. Take Golden State here.

Prediction: Warriors 113, Pistons 95
