Pelicans betting odds vs. Magic in must-win game for New Orleans
The New Orleans Pelicans lost to the Grizzlies last night. They are 1.5 games behind the Lakers for the 9th seed in the Western Conference. The Pelicans are on a four-game home stand and need to win to keep up with the lead. Orlando Magic have the second-worst record in NBA.
New Orleans Pelicans are eight point favorites at home against the Orlando Magic. Markelle Fultz is out for the game and Jalen Suggs is questionable. Brandon Ingram is doubtful to play. The Pelicans have won just two of their last 13 games without him. If Ingram plays, CJ McCollum will be the focal point of the offense. Jonas Valanciunas is a guaranteed double double. Willie Hernangomez is the best low-cost daily fantasy play on the Pelicans.
The game between New Orleans and Orlando will tip off at 7:00 PM CT. The game can be watched on Bally Sports New Orlans or listened to ESPN 100.3 FM.
