Golden State Warriors vs New Orleans Pelicans Prediction
Just because the Warriors beat the Spurs twice doesn’t mean I’m thrilled to lay double-digit chalk. There’s also a chance the Pelicans could have Zion. Check the injury report before placing a bet. However, the Pels have been a tough sell in past years, and this season is no different. From poor play, injuries, and now a coaching change, there’s not a lot attractive about the Pelicans. Thick line, but it’s Warriors or pass for me.
