New Orleans has a new lease on life with Zion Williamson in the lineup, and it has won and covered three in a row following Friday's 139-111 victory over Memphis. Williamson scored 24 points in 29 minutes, and the Pelicans shot 53.7 percent. Houston did get a win over Dallas, but the Rockets still have won only four of their last 10 games, and they are 1-4 ATS their last five as home favorites. Also, Houston has covered once its last six games after a win and are 16-34-1 ATS their last 51 games after scoring at least 125 points their previous game dating to the last few seasons. The Pelicans are 4-1 ATS their last five games at Houston and 4-1 ATS the last five meetings overall. Play the Pelicans.
