Sacramento at New Orleans

There is not a measureable difference of what these teams have done on the court this year. They have both struggled, and a .500 season is not in the cards for either of them. New Orleans may be in the worst emotional spot for this one. They went to Memphis last night as a +7.5 point underdog and now have to come home, and could be flat facing an uninspiring opponent. Sacramento has been improving as they have been a .500 team in their last 12, and are playing above the line at 8-4 ATS in their last 12 as well. While the Pelicans got a rare win last night, they remain just 1-8 in their last nine overall, and have been uninspired at home vs. a team with a losing road record at 0-5-1 ATS in their last six. Play on Sacramento.
