CJ McCollum is averaging 25.6 points and 4.8 rebounds, while Brandon Ingram is averaging 22.7 points and 5.8 rebounds. Jonas Valanciunas is the third double-digit scorer and Devonte’ Graham is grabbing 2.4 rebounds.

The Pelicans are 13-4 ATS in their last 17 road games and 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games overall. The Grizzlies are 20-8 ATS in their last 28 home games and 41-19-1 ATS in their last 61 games overall. The under is 6-1 in Pelicans last 7 overall. The under is 5-2 in Grizzlies last 7 overall. The Pelicans are 7-2 ATS in the last 9 meetings.
For the most part, neither of these teams have much to play for, as the Grizzlies are locked into the second seed and the New Orleans Pelicans are highly likely going to finish with the ninth seed for the play-in game. With that said, this line tells me, oddsmakers probably know something we don't. Also, the Grizzlies have been winning and covering machines all year long, which includes a 26-13 ATS record at home and a 51-28-1 ATS record on the season. Sometimes you just follow the trends and the teams that make you money. Give me the Grizzlies.
