The Golden State Warriors pay a visit to the Philadelphia 76ers at the Wells Fargo Center on Wednesday night. Here’s a Warriors vs 76ers Prediction.
Golden State Warriors
The Golden State Warriors have been in decent form recently as they’ve won three of their past four games and they will be eager to keep building momentum after blowing past the Nets in a 109-98 road win on Monday. Stephen Curry led the team with 29 points on 12 of 24 shooting, Jonathan Kuminga added 28 points with 10 rebounds while Brandin Podziemski chipped in with 15 points, 11 rebounds and three assists. As a team, the Warriors shot 46 percent from the field and just four of 22 from the 3-point line as they struggled to get going and trailed by nine points in the second quarter, before they flipped the script with 66 points in the second half to come away with the solid road win. No bench player finished in double figures in scoring and Lester Quinones finished with just three points on one of seven shooting in 24 minutes of action.
Philadelphia 76ers
Meanwhile, the Philadelphia 76ers have been in a slump as they’ve lost six of their last seven games overall and they will be hoping to snap a two-game skid after getting run over by the Mavericks in a 118-102 loss on Monday. Kelly Oubre Jr led the team with 19 points, Tobias Harris added 17 points with six assists while Tyrese Maxey chipped in with 15 points and seven assists. As a team, the 76ers shot 43 percent from the field and eight of 29 from the 3-point line as they got off to a quick start to take the narrow lead into halftime, only to go cold and get outscored by 65-45 in the second half to suffer yet another double-digit loss. Paul Reed had a rough game in place of the injured Joel Embiid as he scored just two points on one of six shooting. The Sixers will meet the Hawks and Wizards after this game.

Warriors vs 76ers Prediction
The Warriors should have Andrew Wiggins back in the lineup but they could be missing Draymond Green who is questionable with a knee bruise, while the 76ers are still missing Nicolas Batum and Joel Embiid. The Warriors are slowly starting to turn things around with three wins in their past four games and they will be feeling good after their big win over the Nets, while the 76ers are still banged up and stuck in their worst slump of the season. It wouldn’t be surprising if the 76ers were able to get the win behind a big game from Maxey, but the Warriors are the team in better form recently and I think they get the narrow win on the road.
