The Golden State Warriors enter Sunday’s matchup against the Houston Rockets on a six-game winning streak, climbing up the Western Conference standings as the 2024-25 NBA regular season moves into its final week. Golden State sits just a half game back of the Denver Nuggets, who occupy the No. 4 spot ahead of Sunday’s slate. The Rockets currently are the No. 2 seed but haven’t officially clinched that spot yet.
Stephen Curry has been on fire, averaging 41.7 points per game to start April. Curry shined in Golden State’s recent wins over the Lakers and Nuggets, cementing the belief this team can make one more run at a championship as long as he is on the court. Although Curry’s scoring has taken off, his assist number is one to look at when building Sunday’s same-game parlay for Rockets-Warriors.
The Warriors are 5.5-point favorites in the latest SportsLine consensus odds, coming in at -219 (risk $219 to win $100) on the money line. Houston is a +180 (risk $100 to win $180) underdog and the total sits at 225.5.
