The Warriors enter the second night of a back-to-back as they take on the Toronto Raptors on Friday night. Golden State is coming off of a seven-point loss to the Miami Heat in which Steph Curry went for 36 points.

The Warriors are still a dangerous team, with Draymond Green and Curry still possessing enough skill and veteran know-how to carry a group featuring many youngsters in big roles.

Toronto has struggled mightily as of late, losing four-straight games entering Friday evening. They are 9-12 Against The Spread (ATS) at home this season and will be looking to get a more efficient shooting night from their new-look core after shooting a ghastly 38.9% from the field in their loss to the Thunder on March 31, 2021.

In a matchup of two teams desperately looking for a win to right the ship, our PRO Report shows that sharp bettors are taking the points with Golden State. Let's take a look.
