Game: San Antonio Spurs vs Golden State Warriors
The Golden State Warriors catch a break in the schedule when they close a four-game homestand Friday night against the tail-spinning San Antonio Spurs at San Francisco.
The Warriors (40-37) have won four of five, beating the Houston Rockets, Dallas Mavericks, Philadelphia 76ers and New Orleans Pelicans to move into sixth place in the Western Conference, which is the last guaranteed first-round playoff spot.
They will be looking to close out a three-game, season-series sweep of the Spurs (19-57), who have dropped five straight but no longer have an incentive to lose, having guaranteed themselves a spot in the bottom three of the overall NBA standings.
They are assured of joining the Rockets and Detroit Pistons as co-favorites at the NBA draft lottery — otherwise known as the Victor Wembanyama sweepstakes — all with the same odds of being able to select the French superstar.
