New Orleans Pelicans vs Washington Wizards Betting Preview

On January 7, 2024, the New Orleans Pelicans (6-29) will face off against the Washington Wizards (6-26) at Capital One Arena, with tip-off scheduled for 6:00 PM ET. This matchup is particularly intriguing as both teams have struggled significantly this season.

Despite their road woes, the Pelicans enter this contest as 4.5-point favorites. They come off a recent victory against the Wizards, winning 132-120, but have been ice cold on the road, having lost 15 consecutive games away from home. Their implied win probability stands at 63%, reflecting a lack of confidence in their ability to turn around their road misfortunes.

On the other side, the Wizards have also been in a downward spiral, losing 24 of their last 30 games. Their implied win probability sits at 37%. The Wizards face a tough task in facing the Pelicans, especially after their recent defeat.

For those looking to wager on player performance, CJ McCollum's Points and Rebounds market is generating significant interest. Bettors seem to favor the Under, particularly on the line of 29.5 Points and Rebounds at -110, indicating that some believe this total might be mispriced.

As this game approaches, the focus will be on whether the Pelicans can overcome their road struggles and if the Wizards can find a way to snap their losing streak. This matchup presents an interesting dynamic for sports bettors, with implications for both teams' seasons hanging in the balance.
