The San Antonio Spurs will host the struggling New Orleans Pelicans in their next assignment in the NBA. They enter this game with the third-best record in the Western Conference and are four games ahead of their 14th-place visitors. Read on for our prediction of this match.
The Spurs are facing the Pelicans on the second night of a back-to-back. They began this run with an impressive 121-110 home win over the in-form Houston Rockets.
The win snapped a two-match skid and improved them to six wins after eight games. Veteran Harrison Barnes led the team with 24 points against the Rockets, with Victor Wembanyama and Julian Champagnie adding 22 points each.
Mitch Johnson’s men lead this series with New Orleans after winning the first meeting 120-116 on the road.
The Pelicans are in the best run of form they have been in this season. Willie Green’s men started the year with four straight losses, but they have now won their last two. And they have done so by missing key players.
The Pels broke their losing run with a 116-112 home win over the Hornets and followed that up with a 101-99 success in Dallas.
In both games, Yves Missi and Zion Williamson have been left out due to injuries, while Jordan Poole was sidelined against the Mavericks.
