Los Angeles Lakers vs New Orleans Pelicans Prediction & Picks - NBA

 by Stephen Abiola | in NBA Picks

After their exploits in the Emirates NBA Cup on Friday night, New Orleans Pelicans (3-9) will be at home to entertain LeBron James and the LA Lakers (7-4). The Pelicans are fading out quickly even before the season catches fire, with five of their starting players this season out with injuries. As a result, this has left them vulnerable, losing each of their previous six games. Their offense has since dropped to the last position in the NBA standings, averaging only 105.4 points per contest. As for the Lakers, the Pelicans present them with a chance to continue their recent resurgence, which has seen them win four games on the bounce. Their offense is looking sharp this season, sitting sixth in the league with an average of 117.6 points per match. The Lakers' away record this season is, however, wanting.

Our Los Angeles Lakers vs New Orleans Pelicans Prediction

The Lakers are the favorites here, considering the Pelicans' recent struggles. LA should be eager to face the Pelicans, who have six of their seven top scorers ruled out with injuries. James will undoubtedly enjoy a good outing against the Pelicans' rookie center, Missi, and possibly record some double figures if all goes as planned. However, the Lakers are struggling on the road, having won only once in their last six attempts. Still, they should ride to victory here. Our prediction for New Orleans Pelicans vs Los Angeles Lakers: Los Angeles Lakers to cover -6.5 spread.
