The New Orleans Pelicans and the Los Angeles Lakers have split their first two games this season. Both teams won by blowouts on their home court. The New Orleans Pelicans are 30-21 overall and 29-21-1 ATS after a 117-106 win over the Los Angeles Clippers. The Pelicans are tied with the Phoenix Suns for the No. 5 seed in the Western Conference. The Lakers are 27-26 this season after a loss last night to the Nuggets. The loss snapped a three-game winning streak. Los Angeles is ninth in the West. This will be the second night of a back-to-back for the Lakers so it will be interesting to see if James or Davis sits in this one, Even if they play, what will you get out of them for a whole game? The Pelicans have won four straight. The Pelicans have been playing well on the defensive end and I look for them to pick up a win against a tired Lakers team.

Play on New Orleans. This is a 4% play.
