The defending NBA champion Golden State Warriors will look to advance to the Western Conference semifinals with a win in Game 6 of their first-round series with the Sacramento Kings on Friday. The Warriors (44-38), who have won three in a row in the series, had finished just 7-9 in the Pacific Division this season, although they won three of four against Sacramento. The Kings (48-34), who won their first division title in 20 years, are looking to win their first playoff series since 2003-2004. Sacramento, which was 9-7 against Pacific Division foes this year, finished three games ahead of second-place Phoenix.

Tipoff is at 8 p.m. ET at Chase Center in San Francisco. Golden State is a 7.5-point favorite at Caesars Sportsbook, while the over/under is 237.5 according to the latest Kings vs. Warriors odds from Caesars Sportsbook.
