Courtside Players Club NBA 4-5 Units (1/17/25)

NBA

1 Pick (4 Units)

8PM EST: Pelicans -11 (4 Units).

Utah's without their best player and 3 of their top 4 scorers. On top of that they're down both starting and backup Center plus Guard Johnny Juzang. Utah was bad enough as it is, they're practically sending out a G-League team here. The public's smashing Utah because they see two 10-win teams and a double-digit line. The Pelicans have been playing very good basketball since Zion Williamson returned and against good teams. He didn't even play in their most recent 3-point win against the Mavericks. He'll suit up tonight and this one should get ugly because of it.
