J.J. Barea In The Giving Mood

He continues to be a good source for points with a season average of 18.1 points and 40.1 three-point percentage. He should fare well on Wednesday against […]

With nine games on the slate, I can already tell you that the Pelicans-Kings will be one of the higher scoring contests. I'm also eyeing the Celtics-Hornets game for assured value, but I will be mostly focusing on three games, NOP @ SAC, CHA @ BOS, and LAC @ GS. The Pelicans should have no […]

Smith hasn't been ruled out, but head coach Rick Carlisle said he "feels it's unlikely that he'll play." Jalen Brunson is most likely going to make another start on Thursday. J.J. Barea should see minutes in the […]
