A couple of teams with losing records will face off in New Orleans tonight. The Pelicans sit at 4-5 on the season and will host the 1-7 Los Angeles Clippers.
After a 0-4 start to their season, the Pelicans have since gone 4-1 over their last 5 games. Not only have they been winning games, but they have been shooting the lights out of the ball. They are currently 3rd in the league in shooting and are averaging 120 points per game, which is good for 2nd best in the league. In their last wins, they have scored a total of 255 points. No matter the outcome, this Pelicans team is going to score at a high rate.
The Clippers defeated the Sacramento Kings in their season opener, but have since lost their last 7 games. They are coming off a tough loss to the Miami Heat, where they blew a 9-point lead as they headed into the 4th quarter. They were lucky to get to overtime as Rui Hachimura missed the 1st of 2 free throws with 3 seconds remaining, down 1. Luckily, he made the 2nd, and Bam Adebayo missed his game-winning shot attempt. However, they did lose at the buzzer in overtime as Klay Thompson nailed the 3-point game-winner.

Our LA Clippers vs New Orleans Pelicans Prediction
The Clippers are near the bottom of the league in points allowed per game. That is not a good thing when they have the 2nd-best offensive team in the league heading into your house tonight. We fully expect the Pelicans to light up the scoreboard as usual, but the Clippers will hang tough with their strong shooting from distance. They are 2nd in the league in 3-point shooting percentage, and that should factor into this game going over the total.
Our prediction for Los Angeles Clippers vs New Orleans Pelicans: Over 227.5
