Through 3 Quarters

The Golden State Warriors can't call it a day yet, but they are winning as expected. Either squad is in a position to win, but they lead against the Sacramento Kings 84-79.

Shooting guard Damion Lee (18 points) has been the top scorer for Golden State. Damion Lee is close to surpassing his season high of 20.

Sacramento has been led by shooting guard Tyrese Haliburton, who so far has 21 points and eight assists. A double-double would be Haliburton's third in a row.

the Kings have lost 88% of the time when they were down heading into the fourth quarter this year, so this one seems just about wrapped up

What to Know

After five games on the road, the Golden State Warriors are heading back home. Golden State and the Sacramento Kings will face off in a Pacific Division battle at 10 p.m. ET on Monday at Chase Center. Sacramento should still be riding high after a win, while the Warriors will be looking to regain their footing.

The game between the Dubs and the Toronto Raptors this past Saturday was not a total blowout, but with Golden State falling 119-100 on the road, it was darn close to turning into one. Golden State was down 96-69 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from. The top scorer for Golden State was power forward Jonathan Kuminga (26 points).

Meanwhile, the Kings beat the San Antonio Spurs 121-114 on Sunday. Shooting guard Tyrese Haliburton and shooting guard Buddy Hield were among the main playmakers for Sacramento as the former dropped a double-double on 27 points and 11 assists and the latter shot 7-for-9 from downtown and finished with 29 points.

The Dubs are the favorite in this one, with an expected 13.5-point margin of victory. They have been consistent moneymakers against the spread when favored (16-8-2), so they might be worth a quick bet.

The Dubs are now 24-6 while Sacramento sits at 13-18. A couple defensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Golden State have been holding their opponents to a field goal percentage of 42.50%, which places them first in the league. Less enviably, Sacramento is stumbling into the contest with the second most points allowed per game in the league, having given up 114.4 on average. So the cards are definitely stacked against Sacramento.
