Result:
LOSS

A big battle out West as Portland can clinch at least a fifth-place finish with a win Sunday, preventing Golden State from surpassing them. Portland is 29-10 at home and the Warriors are 2-7 ATS in road games against a team with a home winning percentage of greater than .600. The Blazers have won seven of eight, a stretch that coincided with LaMarcus Aldridge's return from a seven-game absence due to a back injury. They've limited their last eight opponents to 96.3 points and 42.8 percent shooting per game after allowing 103.3 and 45.4 prior to this span. Portland is 27-4 when holding opponents to fewer than 100 points after a 111-99 win at Utah on Friday. The Blazers are 5-1 ATS playing on one days rest and 4-1 ATS against team with a winning record. Golden State is off a blowout win over a bad team (Lakers), but the Warriors are 2-9-1 ATS following a win of more than 10 points. Play Portland.
