Pelicans are a slow paced team that doesn't shoot well from 3pt range, heading to Denver to take on another slower paced Nuggets team who defends the deep ball well, but inefficient defends shooting from the field overall (ranked 20th in the league). I expect the Pelicans to try their best to score inside the 3pt arc and refrain from shooting the deep ball while Denver may not even have Jokic tonight and if they do, it's likely the Nuggets try to also put more pressure on New Orleans inside the painted area than from long range, due to the lengthy players the Pelicans have on defense.

Basically the Nuggets are 6-0 to the under in the last 6 straight and the Pelicans are 7-1 in the last 8 road games. 2 of the 3 meetings between the two sides have gone under. Take the under here.

Official Play: Under 231.5

Side Bet: Herbert Jones over 3.5 Rebounds (-130)
