Pelicans at Warriors tips and predictions

forecast

Pelicans 114, Warriors 112

Money line

HAPPEN.

The Pelicans are the favored team here, but for this value and given that 1 of their 4 games this season have ended within 3 points, you’ll want to pay attention to the spread here to determine the value.

Against the spread

BET PELICANS +2.5 (-110).

With most of both teams’ key pieces coming from last season, there are a few trends to keep in mind. New Orleans had an ATS of 21-15-1 after a loss, the eighth-best coverage ratio in the league, and the Warriors were in the bottom third of the league in home coverage ratio, both situations relevant here.

Golden State shot an unsustainable 46% from distance against the Pelicans on Tuesday and likely won’t be able to repeat that. It has a significant size disadvantage, which may also be a factor. Expect the Warriors to disappoint on the second night of a clash with older stars.

Back PELICANS +2.5 (-110).

Over/Under

BET OVER 219.5 (-110).

The Pelicans have yet to get it done defensively, allowing 124.5 PPG in their last two games. They have allowed at least 111 points in 3 of 4 games and are 3-1 O/U.

The Warriors have scored at least 124 points three times and have the firepower to continue scoring at a high level even if they don’t shoot 46% from distance again. They are 2-2 O/U this season.

Given the way both teams have performed, take it OVER 219.5 (-110).
