Dallas at New Orleans

Premium Pick

The New Orleans Pelicans are just 12-35 on the season and bring a three-game losing streak to the floor at home vs. the Dallas Mavericks. The Pelicans allow 118 PPG on the season, and opponents shoot 48% from the field and 36% from deep. In the past 10 games, New Orleans has allowed at least 113 points per game. Dallas is just 25-22 on the season, and they have not defended well on the road, going 14-9 OVER the total. The Pelicans are 15-8 OVER in 23 home games this season, and even with Luka Doncic out, I expect the Mavs to put up a big number here. Bet the Mavericks/Pelicans OVER.
