Utah Jazz vs New Orleans Pelicans May 13th 2020, NBA Free Picks, Odds & Predictions.
Tweet
The Jazz host New Orleans as a -4 point favorite, although the Pelicans young talent has been a splendid surprise this year covering the spread at just over 53%. On the other side the Utah Jazz have underperformed with a 29-33 record ATS. None the less Utah will get some love from New Jersey’s Fanduel as a slight favorite at home simply based on the fact that the majority of active sports bettors feel that Utah will catch fire heading into the playoffs. Even though the Jazz have won their last 5 out of 6 games; Utah has left betting sides at a disadvantage only covering the spread 2 out of the last 10 games and 5 out of the last 20 contests. Over the last few weeks of play before the Coronavirus delay, the Jazz have not shot the 3 pointer at the efficient level they have seen throughout the year, which was a normal rate of 38%. With both teams coming in off of a layoff look for New Orleans to rain shots at a closer to 35% average from behind the arc, while Utah eclipses the 40% three point mark with fresh legs to easily cover the spread for your free play winner!
As we move on to locate the total with the most value between Pennsylvania’s Darft Kings and Nevada’s William Hill, the odds on the total with the most value are in Nevada with a line of 232.5. This type of matchup is one that makes the Pro Line Makers leery as these teams have faced each other three times this year averaging a combined final total of 257 points. Unless the Book Makers take a huge risk with an increased line setting the odds at 250 to force enough action under the total, the Bookies already know this is one game where they will try to sucker the public into a lopsided Over trend; on a matchup that is due to go Under. Both the Jazz and New Orleans before the Covid-19 break had only hit the Over against their foes 42% of the time while shooting a nice percentage from three land. A few Key situational stats to consider, over the last three matchups both teams hit a field goal % at an unheard of rate of 48%, with the 3’s being plentiful at a 43% clip. Considering that both teams have improved defensively over the last two weeks with both defensive bench coaches getting a 4th shot at seeing the same opponent, look for a defensive back and forth which will certainly lock in the Under as your second NBA free pick winner for this matchup. As always after you lock in your two Big solo straight bets, easily combo the Under with the Jazz -4 for your two team Parlay winner!
