The Brooklyn Nets and the Golden State Warriors duke it out at the Chase Center on Monday night. Here’s a Golden State Warriors vs Brooklyn Nets Prediction. This article will include a Golden State Warriors vs Brooklyn Nets Pick.

Brooklyn Nets

The Brooklyn Nets have been in poor form as they’ve lost four of their last six games overall and they will be eager for a better performance after coming up just short to the Kings in a 108-103 road defeat last night. Cam Thomas led the team with 34 points and six assists, Noah Clowney added 18 points off the bench while Cameron Johnson chipped in with 16 points, six rebounds, and four assists.

As a team, the Nets shot 48 percent from the field and 19 of 39 from the 3-point line as they looked to be in trouble when they squandered an early 19-point lead before they made up for it in the fourth quarter by holding the Kings to just 15 points to escape with the gritty win.

Golden State Warriors

Meanwhile, the Golden State Warriors have been in great shape as they’ve won five of their last seven games overall, but they will be hoping to bounce back here after coming up short against the Spurs in a 104-94 road defeat on Saturday. Andrew Wiggins led the team with 20 points, Stephen Curry added 14 points with seven rebounds and five assists while Trayce Jackson-Davis chipped in with 12 points, eight rebounds, and three assists.

As a team, the Warriors shot 37 percent from the field and 14 of 44 from the 3-point line as they got off to a terrific start and led by as many as 17 points early on. However, the Warriors went ice-cold when it mattered most, scoring just 13 points in the fourth quarter to allow the Spurs to run them down with time to spare. The Warriors will meet the Thunder, Suns, and Nuggets after this one.

Golden State Warriors vs Brooklyn Nets Prediction

The Nets are still shorthanded with Dennis Schroder and Dorian Finney-Smith still out, while the Warriors are keeping an eye on Jonathan Kuminga who is questionable with an illness. The Nets were already doing it tough before they got hit by injuries, but things went from bad to worse once Schroder went down. The Warriors were on fire before they got stopped in their tracks by the Spurs on Saturday, but I think we’re going to see a response in the form of a blowout win at home.
