Blazers vs. Warriors: Game preview, prediction, time, TV channel
@Source: oregonlive.com
The Portland Trail Blazers, a team with nothing left to play for and illustrated by their injury report, on Friday night host the Golden State Warriors, a team with much on the line. The Warriors (47-33) enter Friday in a three-way tie for sixth place in the Western Conference with Memphis (47-33) and Minnesota (47-33). The top six teams automatically advance to the NBA playoffs, while teams that finish seventh through 10th must compete in the play-in rounds. The Warriors play a team with five key players ruled out. Deni Avdija is doubtful. Shaedon Sharpe is questionable. The Grizzlies play at Denver (48-42), tied with the LA Clippers (48-42) for fourth. The Timberwolves host Brooklyn (26-54). Prediction: Warriors could win by 25 if Sharpe and Avdija do not play. It’s unlikely Avdija suits up. PORTLAND TRAIL BLAZERS VS.
