New Orleans Pelicans Betting

The New Orleans Pelicans are looking to inject new blood into the organization by trading their core players and getting new ones as well. Their biggest NBA trade deadline acquisition was CJ McCullum and the high-scoring guard immediately made an impact. The Pelicans still struggle to keep things together as they have only won once in their last five matches. Their most recent opponents were the Dallas Mavericks and McCullum tallied 38 points during the loss. Jaxon Hayes looks to create some noise as a starter, providing 18 points. Jonas Valanciunas continued his consistent contribution, providing 16 points and 18 rebounds.
