But, their franchise-record stretch of failure ended, when they defeated the Los Angeles Lakers 129-115. Devin Vassell had 36 points, which gave the Spurs a 20-point lead in the first that they never gave up. Meanwhile,  San Antonio scaled to 24th in defensive rating, even with the losses piling up. Them being one of the best teams in preventing offensive rebounds helps. However, there are still many holes in San Antonio’s defense.

Especially after the Pelicans won all six ATS. They have won three in a row after defeating the Charlotte Hornets 112-107 and will want to end their three-game road trip on a positive note. Their success will begin with the NBA’s 12th-best defensive rating, per NBA.com. On the other hand, the Pelicans are 15th in offensive rating. Friday’s match was disappointing compared to the 121 points they scored against the Minnesota Timberwolves (the league’s top defense) and 142 against the Wizards.

MatchPlug Prediction For San Antonio Spurs VS New Orleans Pelicans  San Antonio’s single edge in this game will end at the rim offensively. Other than that, New Orleans would have beaten them in every other way. Fans can expect the Pelicans to defeat the Spurs by double-digits again, even in Texas.
