1.88Tip and bets
Sacramento did not live up to fans' expectations at the start of the current championship, but after the change of head coach, they began to gradually improve their game. Golden State is also not very happy with its results. It will be very difficult for the Warriors to compete on equal terms with their opponent without the injured Curry. Christie team must achieve victory on the road.
Our prediction is a Sacramento win with overtime at 2.16
