The Oklahoma City Thunder opened the season sizzling hot. They were 24-1 after their first 25 games, but things have not gone as well. Since then, the Thunder are 13-9 overall and 8-5 on home court. Part of the reason is that the Thunder's defense has not been playing as well, leading them to a 7-3 OVER mark in their past ten games. The Pelicans are not going to be in the playoffs this season, and they are 5-17 on the road, despite winning back-to-back road games against the Grizzlies and Spurs over the weekend. New Orleans is allowing 120.8 PPG away from home this year, and the Thunder will help drive this one into the 240s. Take the OVER.

Pro Picks
Oklahoma City at New Orleans
Oklahoma City already has the No. 1 spot in the West. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (left shin contusion) won't play and the team will sit all five starters. New Orleans plays its final game of the season. They have a chance to give the hometown fans a good effort after an embarrassing 153-104 loss to Miami. The Pelicans are 3-1-1 ATS in their last five home games, covering as a +6 underdog to Milwaukee, plus beating Charlotte (98-94) and Philadelphia (112-99). Play New Orleans.
