Premium Pick

New Orleans is on a 2-14 SU, 3-12-1 run and winds up a four-game road trek. Think they want to give it their all on Christmas Day? The Pelicans are 3-8-1 ATS as a road underdog, plus 7-22-1 ATS when playing on one day of rest. New Orleans is #28 in points allowed, and bottom 10 in field goal defense. Meanwhile, Denver is home on a seven-game winning streak, riding a 14-5 SU, and an 11-8-1 ATS run. Denver is No. 1 in the NBA in points surrendered (102.1 pg). Denver lost at New Orleans in the first week of the season, but the Nuggets are 20-8 ATS at home when revenging a straight-up loss to an opponent as a favorite. Lay the points and play on Denver.
