The Pelicans and the Suns are battling for the top spot in the West, and the No.1 place in the NBA. Their matchup on Sunday night is the most interesting of all in the league, so we decided to cover it.
Before betting on the Pelicans vs. Suns
The Pels started the year fast, and even without Zion, this team looked pretty good. Since he got into the rhythm and began pounding on a daily basis, the Pelicans rose to first place in the West. He currently averages 25.3 points per game, and is one of the best players in the league.
His New Orleans lost the past two games to the Utah Jazz, both in Salt Lake City, where they allowed quite a lot of points, 121 and 132, respectively. On the other side, the offense was stuck at 100 and 129. It appears that Pels’s performances at home and on the road are pretty different.
Phoenix snapped a cold-streak winning after four defeats in a row, among which they had two in New Orleans. The Suns were better than the injury-depleted LA Clippers in LA, 111-95, leading with 20+ points all the time.
They are back home after a while, and we can say that the Suns experienced quite a nasty period regarding the schedule. They had to face the Celtics, Pelicans, the rising Rockets etc.
