Pelicans vs. Thunder predictions, picks, odds

Thunder 121, Pelicans 112: It’s a fun matchup record-wise. The Thunder are undefeated and the Pelicans are winless. Expect that to continue. Gilgeous-Alexander will need to carry OKC’s offense again, as Williams and Holmgren remain out. But being at home should help the role players knock down shots. It’ll be important to limit Williamson. He’ll be a threat inside. Hartenstein should be a good physical matchup against him.
