Warriors favored by at least 12.5 points in Game 1 vs. Cavaliers

The point spread on Game 1 of the NBA Finals has reached a historic level.

The Golden State Warriors are 12.5-point favorites over the Cleveland Cavaliers, the largest point spread in an NBA Finals game since at least the 1991 playoffs. And the line was still growing in the hours leading up to Game 1.

By Thursday morning, several sportsbooks had already moved Golden State to -13.
