I believe what I saw from the Pelicans in their opener. The outmanned Kings turned in an inspired effort in their home opener, losing by six to Utah, but should fall here by double digits. Going back to last season, New Orleans usually handles bottom-feeders well. They finished last year on a 10-1 ATS run against losing teams. Lay it.
The Pelicans couldn’t have been any more impressive in a 19-point victory on the road against the Rockets in their opener. Anthony Davis scored 32 points and fell two assists shy of a triple-double, while also getting great support from the likes of Nikola Mirotic, Julius Randle and Elfrid Payton. The Kings, on the other hand, gave up 123 points in their opener to the Jazz, who only averaged 104.1 points last year. This is a big line, but I expect a blowout. Lay the points.
