Pelicans vs Suns

The New Orleans Pelicans will take on the hated rival Phoenix Suns tonight in a game where emotions will likely be flying high.

Devin Booker is also questionable, which is a big one to watch for New Orleans, though they were able to hold him in check in the last game. This one is going to be hard fought, we know that, but which team will be able to put their emotions aside and played focused basketball? After being underdogs at home in the last game, the Pels are favored by three in this one according to Fanduel. Keep in mind it has an early tip off of 2:30 PM CT. I can’t wait for these two teams to run it back and hope we see some of the vitriol that quite frankly, the NBA has been missing in the banana boat era. We thought we might see Brandon Ingram and Herb Jones at some point on this home stand but they have been ruled out once again.

The Suns will not hit 50% of their threes again, stunting the total number of points the team scores. The Suns are the third-best 3-point shooting team in the league, making 38.5% of their attempts. The Under is 5-0 in the Suns' last five games after allowing more than 125 points in their previous game. I expect the Pelicans to run them off the line and buckle down to prevent such precision from the Suns from deep. The Suns hit 38.5% of their threes and hit them at an incredibly efficient clip Friday night (22 of 44). Tonight, the line is currently sitting between 225.5 and 226, a mark that has been reached in both of the previous two matchups. [Zion Williamson](https://www.covers.com/sport/basketball/nba/players/124377/zion-williamson) for a powerful windmill dunk at the end of regulation. Phoenix responds well after giving up many points in a previous game. The Pelicans have benefited, evident by their top ranking in the Western Conference. Phoenix also sent Williamson to the line a ton as he connected on 9 of 12 free throws. Phoenix isn't equipped to slow down Williamson, and it knows that. Phoenix will play with a greater sense of urgency after dropping three straight ugly losses, and Williamson's stunt will provide even greater motivation.
