This was supposed to be the breakout season for New Orleans with twin towers, DeMarcus Cousins and Anthony Davis. Unfortunately, Davis is likely out again, and it has led to a 1-3 start for the Pelicans. Sacramento provided Cousins and that deal left a team that struggled to one that is struggling even more, as they also enter at 1-3. The Kings have offensive issues and over their last three games, they have combined to shoot less than 41% from the field. New Orleans has shown more ability to get a bucket when needed, and with Cousins down low they have the go-to option in what is expected to be a close game. The Pelicans have taken 8 of the last 11 from Sacramento, including four of the last six here. Play on New Orleans.
