For the second straight night the Pelicans are favored over the LA Clippers. They erased a 40 to 26 first quarter deficit to beat the Clippers by 15 points. Over the Clippers last two games they have blown big leads in the first quarter against the Spurs and Pelicans, which is maybe a sign of team fatigue. Back below .500 grab the Pelicans to take advantage for a second straight night.
DraftKings. Darius Garland hasn’t played both legs in a back-to-back since December, and was a game time call coming into yesterday’s game. Reading the tea leaves - he’s likely sitting today, which slides Kris Dunn into the starting lineup as the primary ball-handler. Without Garland or James Harden this season, Dunn has cleared this line in 11/14 games. I expect that trend to continue tonight against the Pelicans, who allow the sixth most assists per game.
