Pelicans Spotlight

The New Orleans Pelicans couldn’t hang on to their 4th quarter lead last night, and eventually fell to the Phoenix Suns by 12 points, while also failing to cover the 11.5 point spread. The Pelicans have been struggling mightily, going 1-11 SU in their last 12 games, and 1-6 SU in their last 7 games on the road. I will give the Pelicans credit though, they have been playing solid basketball lately, going 4-2 ATS in their last 6 games.

Kings Spotlight

The Sacramento Kings just played tough last night in Utah, where they weren’t able to pull off the upset, but covered as 9-point underdogs. They’ll look to snap their 2-game skid versus a lowly team, but they better not overlook them considering they own a bleak 4-10 SU record in their last 14 games at home. At least they know they can beat the Pelicans as they took them out by 4 points a week ago. 

Final Say

The Pelicans have been playing competitive basketball, and should feel sickened with how they finished last nights game. The Kings, on the other hand, are probably feeling good about how they played last night in Utah, because that is a tough place to win games. One team is probably feeling a little bit more motivated tonight, while they know they can hang with the home team. The Pelicans are 6-0 ATS in their last 6 games on 0 days rest. Grab the free points in what should be a back-and-forth matchup.

Pick: New Orleans Pelicans +4.5
