Our New Orleans Pelicans vs Oklahoma City Thunder Prediction
Even though the Thunder are double-digit favorites in this game and are clearly the best team in the league right now, it is hard to back them to blow out every team they play. Instead of backing a spread pick, we will be targeting a ‘both team total points’ prop.
As bad as the Pelicans have been this season, they have had games where they scored a ton of points. New Orleans is averaging 108.4 points per game, while allowing an average of 121.5 points per game. The Thunder, on the other hand, are averaging 121.6 points per game, while allowing just 106.2 points per game.
These teams have already met once this season, a 137-106 win for the Thunder. The result could very well be similar here, especially with the Pelicans playing the second night of a back-to-back.
However, because the Pelicans’ offense has been able to score points on occasion, and the Thunder have a top offense in the league, our New Orleans Pelicans vs Oklahoma City Thunder prediction is: Both Teams Total Points Over 102.5.All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
