Prediction
Pelicans 125, Warriors 119
Moneyline (ML)
The Pelicans (-500) are heavy favorites on the road. While they should pick up the victory, you need to risk five times your return, and that's just not good for business. AVOID.

Line/Against the Spread (ATS)
The WARRIORS ( +9.5, -110) are catching almost five buckets at home. While the Pelicans (-9.5, -110) are hot lately, going 6-1 ATS in the past seven on the road, the Warriors are 4-0 ATS in the past four following a non-cover and 5-1 ATS in the past six against teams with an overall losing record. They might not win this one, but they'll at least be able to keep the Pellies within a bucket or two.
Over/Under (O/U)
The OVER 238.5 ( -115) is quite a high number, but lately it's been all Over, all the time for both of these clubs.
The Over is 4-1 in Golden State's past five at home, and 9-4 in the past 13 against losing teams. The Over is also 4-1 in their past five as a home dog. For the Pels, the Over has connected in each of their past four as a road favorite, while going 9-2 in the past 11 overall on the road.
