The Rockets face off against the New Orleans Pelicans on Sunday in a game they should be able to control. Amen Thompson has been crucial for the Rockets’ offense of late. He is averaging 20.4 points over his last 15 games and has exceeded this mark in 12/15. This matchup is strong as well. The Pelicans are extremely weak at the Rim and that’s where Amen makes a living with 86% of his shots coming from within the paint. Amen has scored 23, 20, and 23 points against the Pelicans already this season and I expect this to continue.
