The New Orleans Pelicans have an MVP candidate on their roster in Anthony Davis who has averaged 24 points per game and 10 rebounds per game, but unfortunately he is out for a couple of weeks, and their drive to the playoffs took a big hit. Brooklyn, despite a 22-31 record on the season, is still pushing hard for a playoff spot in the weak Eastern Conference. They have won two in a row, and have played over the line recently as they have logged a 7-3 ATS mark in their last 10 contests. The Nets are a hot offensive team scoring 112 points per game in their last two, and without Davis on the floor, the Pelicans will be challenged to keep up. Despite the West having a clear advantage over the East, the Nets are 4-0 ATS in their last four vs. the West, and New orleans has failed to get the money four straight times at home vs. a team with a road winning mark of under .400. Make the play on Brooklyn.
