The Rockets face off against the Pelicans on Sunday as double digit favorites. This is an elite matchup against this super soft Pelicans defense. They are bottom of the league in paint defense especially at the rim. Additionally, they struggle in transition, another area where Amen crushes. The key here is that Amen still gets run in blowouts. When the Rockets win by 15+ he still averages 19.8 ppg and is over this line in 9/13 this season. This 17.5 line is one he’s cleared in 59% of games overall and he averages 18.5 per game regardless.
