This is already the fourth meeting between the Suns and Pelicans and all three were barn-burners. New Orleans won two of the games, but Phoenix got the cover in two of them. Two of the games also went Over the total, which is what Phoenix has been doing all season, going 16-8 to the Over at home. New Orleans lost 105-99 at Sacramento last night, but I like the Pelicans to seize the opportunity of playing against a poor defense and score well over their season road average of 99.7 ppg. The top play here is the Over.

Eric Bledsoe is expected back in the lineup after he was rested Saturday. The Pelicans lost in Sacramento last night and could be without forward Terrence Jones (thumb). The Suns are 4-1 ATS in the last five meetings, and I expect them to improve on that Monday night. Lay the small number.
