Where to Watch: TNT
The Los Angeles Lakers (46-29) will host the Golden State Warriors (44-31) at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Thursday, April 3, 2025. Both teams are battling for favorable playoff positioning in the Western Conference, making this game crucial for their postseason aspirations. The Lakers are coming off a 104-98 win over the Houston Rockets, with key performances from Luka Doncic, Austin Reaves, and LeBron James. However, they have struggled with rebounding, ranking fifth-lowest in the league for rebounds per game.
On the other hand, the Warriors are on a three-game winning streak, highlighted by Stephen Curry’s remarkable 52-point performance in their 134-125 win over the Memphis Grizzlies. Since acquiring Jimmy Butler, the Warriors have greatly improved, boasting a 19-5 record and enhancing both their offensive and defensive metrics.
Check out Brad’s BEST PICKS, including his $19 PICK OF THE DAY!
Austin Reaves Over 20.5 Points
Austin Reaves is having an exceptional season with the Los Angeles Lakers. Over 67 games, he has averaged 19.9 points, 5.9 assists, and 4.5 rebounds per game, while shooting 45.5% from the field. Reaves' standout performances this season include a triple-double on December 25, 2024, with 26 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists in a win over this same Golden State Warriors team he’ll be playing on Thursday. Reaves has been one of my favorite money makers this season and has gone over his point total in 7 of his last 9 games.
Luka Doncic Over 7.5 Assists
Luka Doncic has been delivering impressive assist numbers in the 2024-25 NBA season. Between his time with the Dallas Mavericks and the Los Angeles Lakers, he has averaged 7.9 assists per game. Luka has flexed his playmaking muscles as of late, logging 8+ assists in his last 3 games. The Lakers are getting great production from some of the role players on this team, which has helped Luka’s assist numbers.
Steph Curry Under 25.5 Points
Steph Curry is averaging 24.0 points, 6.0 assists, and 4.3 rebounds per game, with a field goal percentage of 44.4% and a three-point shooting percentage of 39.3%. He’s coming off a remarkable performance where he scored 52 points against the Grizzlies. I’m looking to fade Curry after a performance like that. When looking at his previous performances as of late, Curry has scored less than 23 points in 5 of his last 7 games.
