New Orleans Pelicans vs. Phoenix Suns ATS and Over/Under Betting Picks
The Pelicans are shooting just 43.5% from the field to rank 28th in the NBA. Without Poole and especially Williamson, the Pels have to rely on Murphy, who will be a marked man after his 41-point performance. Phoenix's defense has improved with the loss of Durant and Brad Beal and with Mark Williams defending the paint and Dillon Brooks defending everyone in sight. They are not elite defensively, but they allow 35.5% three-point shooting to rank 13th and 41.5% from the field to rank 12th. Phoenix is 20th in pace of play, while New Orleans is 25th according to DunksandThrees.com.
Phoenix has gone under in three straight and four of their last five games.
Take the Suns and the Under.
Pels vs. Suns Spread
- Phoenix -6.5 (current line)
Total for Pelicans vs. Suns
- Under 228.5
Pelicans vs. Suns Final Score Prediction
- Phoenix 115-New Orleans 103
The Suns are rolling and finally healthy save for Jalen Green's injury. Booker is one of the more underrated players in the league and is unselfish when he needs to be. Grayson Allen and Brooks can be very agitating players, but are also efficient scorers. Allen is shooting 41% from three-point range so you can't leave him open when Booker has the ball. It's a tough matchup for the Pels, though most teams are with Williamson and Poole out with injuries.
