The NBA Finals have swung back towards the defending champions. The Golden State Warriors dug deep to win Game 2 on Sunday, squaring this best-of-seven series at 1-1. The next two games will be in Oakland, including Game 4 this Friday at 9 PM ET on ABC.
The Warriors opened as 5.5-point favorites and have moved to –6 at press time for Wednesday’s Game 3 (9 PM ET, ABC), even though it remains to be seen whether Kevin Durant will be cleared in time to play. Durant is still recovering from the strained calf he suffered during the second round. After receiving MRIs, Klay Thompson is officially listed as questionable for Wednesday after tweaking his hamstring on Sunday, while Kevon Looney is out indefinitely in what is now being called a fractured collarbone.

Toronto escaped Game 2 with their health, if not the victory after shooting just 37.2% from the floor and 28.9% from downtown. OG Anunoby was active for the first time in these playoffs after undergoing an emergency appendectomy in early April. Kawhi Leonard is hobbled somewhat by a sore left knee, but has continued to play at a high level throughout the postseason.
NBA Odds: Warriors Host Pivotal Game 4 Versus Raptors
If the Golden State Warriors can “hold serve” in the NBA Finals, they’ll take a 3-1 lead in this best-of-seven series against their latest challengers, the Toronto Raptors. Game 4 will be shown on ABC this Friday starting at 9 PM ET.
After beating the Raptors 109-104 on Sunday as 1-point road dogs, Golden State opened as 5.5-point home favorites and moved to –6 for Wednesday’s Game 3 (9 PM ET, ABC). Kevin Durant’s status is still uncertain at press time; Klay Thompson (hamstring) is questionable and Kevon Looney (collarbone) is out indefinitely after both were injured in Game 2.
NBA Odds: Raptors-Warriors at Oracle Arena for Game 4
Now that the Golden State Warriors have taken home-court advantage from the Toronto Raptors, they can put a stranglehold on the NBA Finals with a pair of victories in Oakland. Game 4 tips off this Friday at 9 PM ET on ABC; Kevin Durant (calf) remains iffy for the Warriors.
