Draymond Green, who was suspended for Game 3, will return on Sunday. His presence will drastically improve the team, especially on defense. Furthermore, Jordan Poole and Gary Payton II are listed as probable on the injury report and will likely play.

The Kings will be relatively healthy for the matchup as the only player listed on the injury report is Matthew Dellavedova. The point guard hasn't played since late March.

Here are the odds for the Game 4 matchup between the Golden State Warriors and the Sacramento Kings:

  • Moneyline (ML): Warriors -340, Kings +280
  • Against the spread (ATS): Warriors -7.5 (-110), Kings +7.5 (-110)
  • Over/Under (O/U): 237.5 (O: -108 | U: -112)

Game prediction

The Golden State Warriors have lost only one game at home in the past two months, and even this was a narrow 3-point loss against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

They have been horrible on the road throughout the entire season, but have also been very dominant at home. Due to this, we expect them to win Game 4 and tie the series.

With the return of Green, the Dubs will get an exceptional two-way player who knows what it takes to win it all. Furthermore, it appears that the Warriors will have all of their rotation players available for the matchup.
