Match Preview
Golden State looks perfect in the preseason. They are without a defeat, and their latest victims were the Detroit Pistons, whom Steve Kerr’s boys beat 111-93.
Steph Curry didn’t play, yet the Warriors made 18 threes in 39 attempts. Buddy Hield scored four, and Lindy Watters III made three with seven boards. All the players apart from Gui Santos have scored for the Dub Nation.

The Lakers finally won one game. After back-to-back losses to the Timberwolves and the Suns, Milwaukee fell in front of the purple and gold, 107-102. Now, looking at what happened on the floor, this looked more like a competitive event than a preseason one.
Rui Hachimura had a team-high 14 points, and AD and LeBron scored 11 apiece, the same as Quincy Olivari.
Warriors vs. Lakers Head to Head
LAL won the first meeting last year, and the Warriors triumphed in the following three games.
Warriors vs. Lakers Prediction
The Lakers aren’t a title contender anymore, and we believe they’ll fight to reach the direct playoff spot in the West, nothing more than that. Meanwhile, the Warriors are a dark horse for the Larry O’Brien trophy, and even though this is a preseason, we pick them to win here.
