Premium Pick

Oklahoma City dominated the third game of the series as it did in Game 2 and the Thunder came away with a 106-85 victory to take a 3-0 lead. The Thunder scored 23 points off 21 turnovers by the Pelicans, who appear to be no match especially without injured Zion Williamson. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had 24 points to lead three 20-point scorers for the Thunder. The game stayed UNDER by 19 points and New Orleans has averaged only 89.6 points the first three games and they scored just 46 points in the first half on Saturday. Oklahoma City has gone UNDER five of its past seven games and New Orleans is 6-3-1 UNDER its past 10. The Pelicans are 10-3-1 UNDER as underdogs and 19-6-1 UNDER as underdogs of 0.5-4.5 points. New Orleans is 0-6 ATS its past six home games and 4-9 ATS overall playing with one day of rest. The Thunder are 38-18-3 ATS after a double-digit win. Take the Thunder as a Max Play and the first half UNDER as a Max Play and also the full game to stay UNDER.
