Stephen Nover's NBA Total of the Week - 4-0 NBA Hot Streak
(NBA) New Orleans vs. Sacramento,
Total: 234.50 | -110.00 Under
Result: Win
Ordinarily it would be dangerous to go Under in a game involving these two teams. Neither team plays defense and neither's team coach is any good.
But these are unique and different circumstances. 
Both teams are out of the playoff chase now after being eliminated on Sunday. 
So concentration could be an issue. More important, though, for the Under is the number of important scorers who are not going to play. 
The Pelicans are holding out Zion Williamson, Brandon Ingram and Jrue Holiday. Those are their three best offensive players.
The Kings won't be playing De'Aaron Fox, Richaun Holmes and Marvin Bagley III. Kent Bazemore might not play either. The key is Fox. He's the Kings' main offensive guy and sets a fast tempo for them. His absence really hurts their offense.
