The New Orleans Pelicans and Sacramento Kings face off on Tuesday in a NBA showdown at the Golden 1 Center. When these two teams faced off on March 2nd it was the Pelicans that won 125-95.
New Orleans Pelicans
New Orleans comes into this game with a 34-44 record and they have gone 16-23 away from home. Coming into this game New Orleans has won three of their last four games but the one loss was in their last game against the Los Angeles Clippers the offense only scored 100 points, while their defense gave up 119 points.
New Orleans is averaging 108.9 points while their defense is giving up 109.9 points per game. The Pelicans are averaging 18.2 free throw attempts per game which is 3rd best in the entire NBA.
Brandon Ingram has been the top player for New Orleans averaging 22.8 points while shooting 46.3 percent from the field. CJ McCollum has also had a strong season averaging 22.6 points while shooting 46.2 percent from the field.
Sacramento Kings
On the other side of this matchup is the Sacramento Kings who sit with a 29-50 record and they have gone 16-24 at home. In the last game against the Golden State Warriors, the offense only scored 90 points, and that led to the 19 point victory.
Sacramento is averaging 110.4 points while their defense is giving up 115.7 points per game. One issue for this offense is they are only shooting 34.3 percent from deep, and they are going to need to hit a few from deep in this game.
One issue for this team is they are banged up including star De’Aaron Fox who is dealing with a hand injury. Fox is averaging over 23 points per game, and not having him for the offense is a big loss.

Free New Orleans Pelicans vs. Sacramento Kings NBA Analysis:
The Pelicans are a different team with McCollum and I expect he is going to have a big game again in this one. The Kings just don’t have the offense to keep this game close. Look for the Pelicans to score at least 120 points and that is going to be the difference as New Orleans cruises to the victory. Back the Pelicans against the spread.
