The Suns sit two games ahead of the Pelicans in the standings, and Phoenix currently holds the eighth and final playoff spot in the West. New Orleans will try to close the game here at home tonight, and I like their chances of doing just that.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Home Cookin' - The Pelicans are a solid 9-4 at home so far this season, and they are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.

2. Anthony Davis - He's on pace to average over 24 points, 10 rebounds and 3 blocks this season. The last player that did that was Shaq when he was one vote shy of unanimously winning the MVP Award.

3. X-Factor - The Pelicans are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games vs. a team with a winning S.U. record.

Selection: This is a play on the New Orleans Pelicans (10*)
