Phoenix at New Orleans

New Orleans almost pulled out a win before losing Game 3, 114-111, against the Suns, who will be without Devin Booker for the rest of the series. The Pelicans are always capable of staying close with their two sharpshooters in Brandon Ingram, who scored 34 points, and CJ McCollum, who added 30 points for the Pelicans. Phoenix had stayed UNDER six games in a row before going OVER in the last two games, and the Suns are 9-3-1 UNDER in their last 13 conference quarterfinal games. The Pelicans have covered six of seven following an ATS loss, and they are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 conference quarterfinal games. These teams have averaged 103.6 points before halftime in this series, and Phoenix made only four of 26 3-pointers on Friday without Booker. New Orleans needs to come out focused defensively as it can't go back to Phoenix down 3-1. Take the Pelicans and the First-Half UNDER.
