New Orleans Pelicans: Overcoming the Odds

The New Orleans Pelicans have struggled this season. With a record of 21-55, they are 14th in the Western Conference. Their away record is 7-31, which shows the challenges they face on the road. Injuries have been a major issue for the Pelicans. Key players like CJ McCollum, Zion Williamson, and Dejounte Murray are out for the season. This has left the team relying on other players to step up. Offensively, the Pelicans average 110 points per game. They rank 24th in the league for points per game. Defensively, they allow 118.7 points per game, ranking 26th in the league.

Final Betting Pick

The Pelicans have a good chance to cover the +13.5 spread. Their record as underdogs against the spread (ATS) is decent, and the Lakers are on a 1-game ATS losing streak. This could work in the Pelicans’ favor, even though they have struggled overall this season.

The under 219.5 is a reasonable pick for this game. The Pelicans are on a 4-game under streak, indicating lower-scoring games recently. Additionally, the Lakers’ strong defense, allowing only 112.2 points per game, could help keep the total score low.
