Golden State Warriors win 109-107 over Los Angeles Chargers. LAC's offense hampered by key absences like Chris Paul, Darius Garland, Bradley Beal, John Collins, Derrick Jones Jr., and Mason Plumlee out, plus James Harden day-to-day. Warriors' healthy core—Moses Moody (15.6 PPG), Gui Santos (15 PPG)—exploits LAC's rank #2 allowance of 1.24 three-pointers/game to guards.

Player Props to Watch

  • Moses Moody o15.5 points: Averaging 15.6 PPG with high of 25, faces LAC's vulnerable guard defense.
  • Kawhi Leonard o28.5 points: 29.3 PPG average, high 41, but supporting cast limited.

Best Bets

  • Warriors ML +116: Value play with LAC's extensive outs vs GSW's healthier lineup.
