De’Aaron Fox has proven himself in the San Antonio Spurs' offense with Victor Wembanyama still sidelined with an injury. The Spurs play the New Orleans Pelicans next, and we're backing Fox to make at least 22 points in our match prediction.
Fox is undoubtedly the star man for the Spurs at the moment, as he plays 32:54 minutes per game, the most, only behind the injured Wembanyama. It's no surprise, as he is amongst the most experienced players in the lineup and the sharpest attacker available. Fox has now averaged 25.0 points in 14 games so far, making 6.3 two-pointers, 2.4 three-pointers, and 5.1 free throws per game.
He is also operating in a Spurs team that has averaged the 7th-most points per game this season (118.9), going against a Pelicans side that allows the third-most points at 123.2 per game. That volume scored combined with the sheer volume NOP allows is the perfect catalyst for Fox, the Spurs' primary shooter, to make over 21.5 points.
We've now seen Fox score 22+ points in his last four games, and in ten of his last 11 matches. Interestingly, Fox also met the Pelicans in his first game of the season, dropping 24 points in 31 minutes, even outscoring Wembanyama in that game.

Our New Orleans Pelicans vs San Antonio Spurs Prediction
One of the teams with the highest points volume this season goes up against one of the teams with the lowest. Fox, who's the primary scorer for the Spurs at the moment, is poised to score over 21.5 points.
The only scenario that could impede this might be an early blowout that could see the San Antonio’s star men take an early rest. If not, Fox should bag 22+ points, just as he has done in his last four games, ten of his last 11, and his only meeting against the Pelicans this season. Hence, our New Orleans Pelicans San Antonio Spurs prediction is that Fox scores over 21.5 points.
