Phoenix is 20-13 at home, while New Orleans is 9-23 away. The Pelicans are coming off a 133-123 win at Sacramento with seven players in double figures, but that kind of offensive spike is hard to repeat the next night. It also came against the Kings, who are the worst team in the NBA. Phoenix has a better roster and an elite defence. However, their loss to Chicago recently has diminished their stock. However, the Pelicans’ win against Sacramento is a red herring. Phoenix is in a position to dominate.

The Nuggets are playing on a 2nd night of a back-to-back, plus the Knicks won the first meeting in double OT. The absence of Aaron Gordon and Cam Johnson is huge in games with no rest, which is why I like the Knicks to cover on the road. New York is also 6-1 ATS/SU in 7 meetings.

The San Antonio Spurs enter with a strong defensive profile, posting a defensive rating of around 110.9 while averaging about 46 rebounds per game, anchored by Victor Wembanyama. The Los Angeles Clippers have been inconsistent and rank near the bottom in rebounds and assists. San Antonio is also 9-3 ATS on the second night of back-to-backs, giving them an edge.

Although the Lakers are playing with no rest here, the Pacers have given up on the season and are blatantly tanking games. Their last 4 losses are all by double-digits, and they’ve dropped 7 in a row overall. LA is 3-1 SU in 4 games with no rest, winning all 3 of them by double-digits. I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt and back them to cover.
