Spurs
San Antonio is looking to pick up the pace after registering back-to-back victories. Their form has been inconsistent, but DeMar DeRozan is leading the pack with determination. The 31-year-old would look to extend the Spurs’ winning run when they face Golden State on Wednesday.

Moreover, the Spurs are troubled by injuries and health concerns, as they’ll be without three players in their upcoming game. Keita Bates-Diop (illness), Luka Samanic (illness), and Quinndary Weatherspoon (knee) are the ones listed out for Wednesday’s game.

Prediction
The Golden State Warriors are the favorites to win this one, but it won’t be straightforward. San Antonio is currently leading their Southwest Division, and this tells that they’re a team that’s on the rise.
Spurs are a good defensive unit, but they’d have a lot of work to do when they face Curry, Green, and Wiseman on the court. Though the Spurs seem like a team that can pose a threat, they could be overpowered by Curry and his men.
