The Pelicans are a heavy underdog tonight in Oklahoma City but have been a great play for bettors in previous games versus the Thunder.
Oddsmakers from online sports book BetDSI currently list the Thunder as 12-point home favorites over the Pelicans for tonight’s 8:00PM ET tip-off. The total, meanwhile, has been bet down from 220.5 to 218.
