The Golden State Warriors will look to gain traction in the Western Conference with an impressive showing at the Chase Center tonight, and we expect Steph Curry to give us a vintage performance from beyond the arc.

The Washington Wizards and Golden State Warriors will lock horns tonight, as Steph Curry and the Dubs look to get back over .500.
With the Dubs listed as -900 favorites on the moneyline, my Wizards vs. Warriors predictions zero in on Curry staying hot from deep.

My best bet
Steph Curry Over 5.5 threes (+110 at bet365)
My analysis
Golden State Warriors guard Steph Curry has drilled 6+ triples in three of his last five starts, and I like him to add to that total against the Washington Wizards tonight.
The Wizards allow shooters like Curry to drain better than 38% when Washington is on the road, and Curry remains the Warriors’ main man. He leads the team in usage, and he’s made nearly 42% of his 11 triple attempts. Curry’s 3PT% also spikes to 47% on the same number of attempts at Chase Center.
The Warriors have to cover a big number (-13.5), and if Golden State is to cover, it’ll need the NBA career three-point leader to have a huge game from downtown.
Curry has drained 6+ in three of his previous five at Chase, and the future Hall-of-Famer should add to this tally tonight.
I like Curry to have a monster shooting night, but I don’t expect former teammate Jordan Poole to clear his scoring prop.
Poole has failed to score 22+ in each of his last three and averaged 20.5 points per game in three prior meetings with his former club.
Slowing down Washington’s leading scorer should help Golden State win this game. The Wizards have lost 14 straight away games, and I’m not hopeful they can snap the losing skid in the Bay Area tonight.
