NBA Opening Night Game Preview
Los Angeles is a 4.5-point favorite and the total sits at 230.5 points. The Golden State moneyline sits at +164 and Los Angeles is at -196.
Los Angeles was busy in the offseason as there was a complete roster turnover. The big acquisition was trading for Russell Westbrook, but Dwight Howard, Trevor Ariza, Malik Monk, Carmelo Anthony, and Rajon Rondo will also be key newcomers. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Kyle Kuzma, and Dennis Schroeder are contributors from last season that left during the offseason.
Golden State did not acquire any huge names this offseason, but they will be getting Klay Thompson back who missed all last season with injury. Andre Iguodala and Otto Porter Jr. should contribute this season as well. Kent Bazemore and Kelly Oubre Jr were two contributors from last season who went walking this offseason.
Take advantage of the DraftKings 40/1 promo and put your moneyline wager on Golden State +164.
