New Orleans Pelicans vs Cleveland Cavaliers Prediction & Betting Tips - NBA
by Devesh Jaganath | in NBA Predictions
The Cleveland Cavaliers will look to continue their excellent run in the NBA when they travel to the Smoothie King Center to face the New Orleans Pelicans on Thursday. The Pels (3-5) are 14th in the Western Conference standings, while the Cavs (8-0) are top in the East. Let’s get into the match prediction.
After a bright start to the season, the New Orleans Pelicans have now lost five of their last six matches, with the most recent defeat coming against the Trail Blazers (118-100) on Tuesday.
Brandon Ingram and Brandon Boston Jr notched up 27 and 20 points respectively in the defeat, but the team were quite noticeably poor on offence without the services of Zion Williamson.
As a team, the Pels are averaging just 107.8 PPG this season, ranking fifth-worst in the league, while on defence they’re allowing 116.1 - 19th overall in the NBA.
Meanwhile, the Cleveland Cavaliers have been excellent so far this season and are one of only two teams, along with OKC, that are yet to drop a match this term.
Last time out, Darius Garland led the team with 39 points en route to a 116-114 victory over the Bucks, with Evan Mobley and Jarrett Allen chipping in with 17 and 14 points respectively.
The Cavs are ranked second (122.3) in PPG this season, only 1.3 points behind the Celtics, and they are eighth in points conceded (109.1).

Our New Orleans Pelicans vs Cleveland Cavaliers Prediction
The Pelicans dearly missed Williamson in their last outing and he is listed as a doubt for this match as well, along with the likes of Dejounte Murray and CJ McCollum, which adds to their concerns.
The Cavs have been playing some of the best ball we’ve seen from them in recent years and have covered the spread in all but one of their match this season. Therefore, our New Orleans Pelicans vs Cleveland Cavaliers prediction: Cleveland Cavaliers -7.5!
