New Orleans Pelicans vs Golden State Warriors: Current situation
At 1-1 the Pelicans are still not out of the Emirates NBA Cup, however a blowout loss to Dallas in their last game in this competition has ruined their point differential, making it almost impossible to win a potential tiebreaker. Injuries to Trey Murphy, C.J. McCollum, Brandon Ingram, Dejounte Murray and Herbert Jones have still not healed, as we get close to December this season is starting to look like a wash for the Pelicans.
Golden State is 2-0 in the Emirates NBA Cup following wins over Dallas and Memphis, with their next 2 games being on the road at New Orleans and Denver. They too received some bad news on the injury front with De’Anthony Melton having season ending surgery, but that shouldn’t have too much of a negative effect on the team considering their depth. Stephen Curry is playing some of his best basketball, despite logging less than 30 minutes per game this season.
New Orleans Pelicans Stats & Form
The Pelicans are desperate to get at least one of their players back from injury, their last 2 losses against the Cavaliers and Dallas were by 28 and 41 points. Right now they have more than 60 points per game worth of players out, this team is very comparable to the Memphis Grizzlies from last season. Look for the Pels to be active at the trade deadline if they aren’t able to turn things around soon.
Golden State Warriors Stats & Form
Golden State recovered well from their loss to the Clippers earlier this week, as they beat the Atlanta Hawks 120-97 on Wednesday. Once again we saw their lockdown defense in full effect, they remain the 4th most efficient team on that end of the floor this season with teams averaging just 105.7 points per 100 possessions against them. From a bettors perspective, Golden State has been very successful lately, covering the spread in 8 of 11 games.
New Orleans Pelicans vs Golden State Warriors: Head-to-Head
This will already be the 3rd meeting of the season between the Warriors and Pelicans, the first two were both played in San Francisco. Golden State thoroughly dominated both of those games, winning by 18 and 15 points. They are now 5-2 ATS/SU in the last 7 meetings and by all accounts those numbers should improve after Friday’s game as well.
New Orleans Pelicans – Golden State Warriors Odds
Golden State is favored by 8.5 points here, which gives you odds of just 2/5 if you back them on the Money Line. For a upset home victory by the Pelicans you can get 13/8 odds.
The point total for Thursday’s game is set at 220.5 points, with odds of 10/11 supporting either the over or the under.

Betting tip and prediction: New Orleans Pelicans vs Golden State Warriors (22.11.2024)
Only one team in the NBA has had a worse efficiency on defense than the New Orleans Pelicans have had over the last 10 games. This team has allowed 121.6 points per 100 possessions to be scored against them, with most of their top players out with injuries it’s hard to see that record improving any time soon. They are going up against a Warriors team that’s been on fire lately, with just one minor hiccup along the way. Strength in numbers is the motto of this Golden State and they are showing it on a nightly basis. Right now they have 5 players averaging double-digit points, led by Stephen Curry who is at just 23 per game. However, those 23 per game are very efficient and also coming in the clutch, where the Warriors are one of the best teams in the NBA. The injury to De’Anthony Melton is a setback, but if we look at the Warriors bench they should be able to fill in the void left behind. So far in the 2 meetings this season New Orleans has put up 106 and 89 points, it’s hard seeing them cracking the 100 point mark here if we are being honest. The injury to Brandon Ingram was a devastating blow as he was the one keeping this team afloat with 3 other starters out. Golden State should dominate this one from start to finish, so let’s back the Warriors to cover the spread.
