Warriors Favored to Win NBA Finals, Steph Curry Finals MVP Favorite

The Warriors' run of excellence resumed Thursday evening in San Francisco.

The same core of those historically good late 2010s teams—Steph Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green—have brought the Warriors back to basketball’s biggest stage. No. 3 Golden State defeated the No. 4 Mavericks in five games in the Western Conference finals to advance to their sixth NBA Finals in eight seasons, a feat no team has accomplished since Michael Jordan’s Bulls.

Golden State is now favored to win its fourth ring in this span.

The Warriors have -160 odds to win the NBA Title, better odds than both of their potential opponents.
