New Orleans Pelicans vs Los Angeles Lakers Prediction – 3/4/2025


On March 4, 2025, the New Orleans Pelicans will face off against the Los Angeles Lakers in a matchup that sees two teams trending in opposite directions. The game is set to tip-off at 10:30 PM ET at Crypto.com Arena, where the Lakers have established a strong home-court advantage.

The Pelicans, currently sitting at 17-44, come into this game having lost 36 of their last 50 contests. Although they managed a victory against the Utah Jazz in their last outing, a 128-121 win, the team's overall performance has been lackluster. Traveling cross-country to Los Angeles adds another layer of difficulty, making this road game a challenging prospect for New Orleans.

In stark contrast, the Lakers are riding high with six consecutive victories, bringing their record to 38-21. As a result, Los Angeles is heavily favored, with the spread currently set at Lakers -8.5 and a moneyline of -340. The Pelicans’ moneyline sits at +285, indicating they have an implied win probability of 25%, while the Lakers boast a 75% chance of winning according to the odds.

For those looking to explore player prop markets, CJ McCollum’s points are generating significant interest among bettors. The current line is set at Over 18.5 Points (-120), with sharp bettors leaning towards the Over, believing it may be mispriced and offers value.
