Both teams played Wednesday but now are in reverse situations in terms of home court with New Orleans coming home from OKC where they had a big comeback win, and Detroit traveling to New Orleans after a loss to the Blazers. I'm on the Pelicans -7.5 because the Pistons have nobody down low to stop Zion
or Valenciunas, NOR do they have elite shooting abilities from long range to make things tough on this Pelicans defense that is looking top 10 so far this season. Pistons injuries are key to them losing this game too, as the bench is just too young and inexperienced to compete with a team like N.O. I only worry about if someone will be sat for New Orleans because they play 1 more game tomorrow to close their week vs Atlanta but that's at home too so it shouldn't be too much on a factor.

Official Play: Pelicans -7.5

Side Bet: Under 219

Hail Mary: Valenciunas over rebounds prop (line isn't set yet)
