Saturday’s Best NBA Preseason Bets: Pelicans vs. Hawks
Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook | All wagers are for 1 unit
New Orleans Pelicans vs. Atlanta Hawks
The New Orleans Pelicans have started the year 0-2. The Pelicans have lost to the Magic and Rockets while allowing at least 120 points in each game. Meanwhile, the offense hasn’t even contributed 200 points combined in both games. New Orleans just lost to the Rockets at home, 120-87. This happened when Zion Williams, Brandon Ingram, and the other starters played more than 20 minutes each.
On the other hand, the Hawks have won back-to-back one-point games against the Cavaliers and Grizzlies. Trae Young looked great in his last game. Meanwhile, Kobe Bufkin just added 12 off the bench in 22 minutes. He’s been confidently shooting the ball.
Therefore, we’ll back the Hawks in this game.
Bet: Hawks -2.5 (-110)
