Golden State Warriors vs New Orleans Pelicans Prediction: Expect a Total Over

Golden State will play their fourth game of the summer. So far, the San Francisco team hasn't scored less than 90 points. Will this trend continue in the game against New Orleans?

Golden State Warriors

For the Warriors, the 2023 Summer League began in Sacramento, where they lost first to the local Kings (94:100) and then beat Charlotte (98:83). After moving to Las Vegas, Golden State faced the Los Angeles Lakers, who again played well on offense, but lost 96:103.

The Warriors' heroes in Las Vegas were the same players as in Sacramento. In the meeting with the Lakers, Gui Santos scored 25 points, and Lester Hinona registered 15 points. For both forwards, playing in the club's reserves system, this summer may be their last chance to make the main roster. So their desire to prove themselves is understandable.

New Orleans Pelicans

The Pelicans have only played one game in the 2023 Summer League. In their first tournament game in Las Vegas, they lost to Minnesota by a combined score of 88:102.

Despite the disappointing result against the Timberwolves, Dyson Daniels had a decent game for the Pelicans. The guard, the 8th pick of the 2022 draft who played for New Orleans and in the Summer League last year, scored 18 points. Jordan Hawkins, the 14th pick of the 2023 draft, scored 16. Dereon Seabron and Landers Nolley II each scored 10 points for scoring.

Expert Betting Tips

Golden State's 2023 Summer League games are always productive. The upcoming game will be no exception. New Orleans is missing some big men. At the same time, the "small" lineup allows the Pelicans to have a better matchup offensively than they did against Minnesota. Especially the Warriors have conceded a hundred or more in two of their three games. We're betting on a high-scoring game.
