What you need to know about the Warriors

Golden State has bounced back from a four-game losing streak at the end of March with a four-game winning streak at the beginning of April. The Warriors extended their streak with a 100-94 road win at San Antonio on Saturday. They have a chance to clinch the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference with either a win or a Dallas loss on Sunday night. 

Star guard Stephen Curry remains sidelined due to a foot injury, but he is expected to return when the playoffs begin. Shooting guard Klay Thompson is averaging 19.7 points per game, while Jordan Poole is adding 18.4 points. The Warriors have won 10 of the last 14 meetings between these teams. 

What you need to know about the Pelicans

New Orleans was able to secure a home game in the Western Conference play-in tournament when Golden State beat San Antonio on Saturday. The Pelicans will play host to San Antonio on Wednesday night, but they will wrap up their regular season campaign first. They are coming off a 141-114 blowout loss to Memphis, which wound up not hurting them due to Golden State’s win. 

The Pelicans have been without second-leading scorer Brandon Ingram (hamstring) for their past two games, and he is listed as questionable for this contest. Shooting guard CJ McCollum leads the way with 25.7 points and 6.1 assists per game. New Orleans has covered the spread in eight of its last 12 games.
