San Antonio at New Orleans

Premium Pick

The San Antonio Spurs have lost five of their last six games, including a home game yesterday to the Oklahoma City Thunder. The defending NBA Champs are 9-7 on the road this season as they head to New Orleans to face an ever improving Pelicans team that owns a crisp 8-4 record on their home court. The Spurs are a tough team and rarely find themselves in a very elongated bad stretch, and I look for them to rebound here in this one. San Antonio is the best NBA team on the road picking up the pieces off a loss as a favorite where they are a highly profitable 27-4-1 ATS in their last 32 games in this spot. That includes 12-1 ATS if their opponent has a winning percentage of .550 or less. Make the play on San Antonio.
