Randy’s Free Pick

The Portland Trail Blazers are coming off a tough loss last night, but they return home where they're at their best. The New Orleans Pelicans have been hit or miss since Zion got hurt, and they're losing their last 5 games by an average of 10 points while not playing much defense. We're only laying a bucket. I'll side with the Trail Blazers at home.
