Now that the 2025 NBA postseason has begun, the basketball betting market is hotter than ever. CBS Sports will be providing daily picks for the duration of the postseason. Sam Quinn will make at least one pick for every game between now and the NBA Finals.

On Friday night with the chance to eliminate the Rockets and move on to the second round, Kerr and the Warriors will tweak their starting group again, adding Gary Payton II to the starting lineup and move Podziemski to the bench.
