Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Full-Time Result – Handicap (-2.5) for Pelicans – 2.25.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Match Points Over 221.5 – 1.80.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Three – Pelicans’ Points Over 109.5 – 1.70.
The New Orleans Pelicans looked great in their last game. The team from Louisiana surprised everyone with their play. To beat the Suns this season is very hard. If the Pelicans continue to play like this, they could take the win away from California.
In their last game against the Suns, New Orleans Pelicans scored 117 points. The Pelicans’ offence seems to be doing fine. I don’t think they’re going to let up. The game ahead is a battle for a playoff spot. With that in mind, we think the encounter will be quite productive.
The Pelicans have scored more than 111.5 points in 3 of their last 4 games.
The break had no effect on the Lakers’ performance. Frank Vogel’s side continues to be very unstable. In their last game, they suffered a defeat. This time the Lakers lost to the Clippers (102-105).

The situation in the standings is not ideal for the Lakers. As you know, the Los Angeles team sits in ninth place. They still need to hold on to that position. For example, they’re just two wins away from 11th place.
New Orleans Pelicans:
The acquisition of C.J. McCollum was the right decision. The former Portland Trail Blazers player has become the Pelicans’ true leader. He scored 32 points in the last game. His effort helped the New Orleans Pelicans to get a win over the Phoenix Suns (117-102).

The Pelicans now have a real chance to move into the top 10. The Louisiana team currently sits 11th in the West. Two wins separate them from tenth place. Success in the next game could significantly improve the team’s position.
