T.M. Selection: Pelicans/Suns OVER.

I am on the over in the New Orleans Pelicans vs Phoenix Suns game on Tuesday. The Pelicans have been scoring a lot more points in their last few games. They scored 109 on the Kings and 117 against the Knicks. Their shooting was about average in their last game just under 50% with their field goals and a little over 30% with their 3 pointers. they have not played since Saturday night so the are well rested for this game and I expect them to have a much better shooting percentage in this game. They have not been playing great defense in their last couple of games as they have given up 110+ points in each of their last 2. The Suns have had a disappointing start to their season and are not scoring a lot or sinking a lot of shots. They have only scored 110+ points in 1 game this season and I expect that to change here. They have not played since Saturday either and will be just as rested as the Pelicans. their shooting percentage has been average in their games but lately their 3 point percentage has been really bad. They have shot under 30% with their 3 pointers in their last 2 games but with the 2 days of rest, I'm expecting a much better effort here. I think both teams will be fresh for this game and come out hard looking for the win. I think both these teams are going to have a better day with their shooting from the field so I like this game to go over the posted total.

T.M. Prediction: 127-118 Suns.
