New Orleans at Indiana

January 16, 2026

7:00 PM Eastern

Zion Williamson (22.4 ppg) and Trey Murphy III (22.2 ppg) lead a New Orleans offense that has averaged 118.75 points over the last four games. But they've lost 11 of 13 because of a poor defense, ranked 28th in the league in points surrendered (122.2 per game) and 27th in opponent shooting. Indiana had won three in a row as underdogs before losing at home to Toronto as a favorite, allowing 49% shooting. The defense ranks 23rd in points given up and 25th in shooting allowed. These teams met in December in a 128-109 New Orleans win that went OVER 235.5, and this shapes up as another game with more offense than defense. Take New Orleans/Indiana OVER the total.

Indiana at New Orleans

December 20, 2025

7:00 PM Eastern

Two of the worst teams in the NBA square off in this matchup, but Indiana played one of its best games of the season before losing 114-113 to New York on Thursday. Jalen Brunson hit a go-ahead 3-pointer with 4.4 seconds left to win it for the Knicks. New Orleans surprisingly has won three in a row after losing 16 of 17. The Pelicans shot 51 percent and hit 11 of 27 3-pointers while defeating Houston in overtime 133-128 on Thursday. Plus, they overcame a 25-point third-quarter deficit, which is not likely to happen in consecutive games. Indiana got a spark from Quenton Jackson, who had been out with a hamstring injury. Jackson scored 10 points with four rebounds and two assists while helping on the defensive end. Take the Pacers.
