The New Orleans Pelicans became a bad team when Chris Paul left, but have worked their way back to respectable with the emergence of Anthony Davis. They have fallen back under the .500 mark, however, as their recent play has left them at 3-5 in their last eight games, and they have lost to Charlotte and Indiana in the process. Memphis has stood up very well on the road where they are 11-6 on the season, where they have been 7-1 vs. losing teams, so they have shown up for these type of games, which often is not the case for most NBA teams. Memphis has also delivered when they come into a game with a day of rest where they have put together a nice 9-4 ATS mark in their last 13. Play on Memphis in this one.
