Command Analysis
San Antonio Spurs
USACurrent form
San Antonio ended up in the top three underdogs of the Western Conference. The team is going through serious difficulties, as Victor Vembanyama is out until the end of the season, and Gregg Popovich is recovering from a stroke. San Antonio understands that it is unlikely to be able to compete for the play-in zone, but it needs to finish the tournament.
In the last meeting, the team lost to Charlotte (134:145). Stephon Castle scored 26 points, but it wasn't enough. The club has a home match against its neighbor in the standings, New Orleans, ahead of us, so we'll have something to watch.
Disqualifications and injuries
Charles Bassey, De'Aaron Fox and Victor Vembanyama will not play in the next match due to injuries.
Interesting facts for betting
- In the last five matches, the Spurs have scored only one victory.
- San Antonio has scored 16 wins since the start of the season.
Approximate composition: Wassell - Barnes, Biyombo Castle, Paul.
New Orleans Pelicans
USACurrent form
New Orleans is in a similar situation, but has been playing poorly throughout the season. The team is undergoing restructuring, so the results are not particularly encouraging.
In the previous match, the Pelicans could not match Orlando (93:113). The opponent started the game well, but Willie Green's team couldn't even things out in the end. There's an away game against San Antonio ahead, so it's definitely not going to be easy, but the guests are ready to compete with their neighbor.
Disqualifications and injuries
Brandon Boston, Herbert Jones, Dejante Murray and Kelly Olynyk will not play on the floor due to health problems.
Interesting facts for betting
- The Pelicans have won only one game in their last five games.
- New Orleans has six away wins.
Approximate line-up: Williamson - Murphy, Matkovich - McCollum, Brown.

1.94Tip and bets
San Antonio, though unstable, is trying to play with character. Of course, a lot of problems have befallen the team this season, but we have to hold our own. The home court factor is on the side of the hosts, so there is a chance to cling to victory.
New Orleans is frankly finishing the season, as the team does not have the strength to compete with most teams in the league. The Pelicans don't do very well in face-to-face matches, so they're unlikely to score points. In our opinion, San Antonio has a better chance of winning thanks to the home arena and motivation.
Our prediction is a 2.56 overtime win for San Antonio.
