Advice and prediction

The Pelicans are in a free fall right now with their schedule doing them no favors. After playing the top two teams in the Western Conference, New Orleans finally has a reprieve against Luke Walton and the Kings.

The Kings sport the worst defense in the league by some margin and an average offense. It should provide a boost for a New Orleans offense that has struggled this season.

Along the same lines, the Pelicans have not reached 228 points in any of their last four games, meaning under 228.5 is probably the smartest play.

Prediction: Pelicans 112, Kings 108
