Pelicans vs. Magic
Anthony Black Over 23.5 Points + Assists (-140)
By Joe Dellera
The Magic face off against the Pelicans this afternoon, and I expect Anthony Black to continue his success without Franz Wagner and Jalen Suggs.
Black is averaging 21 points and 4.8 assists per game without them, and has cleared this line in 8-of-11 games without the two of them. He bounced back after two really poor performances and put up 25 PA last time out against the Sixers.
The Pelicans are a strong matchup. They play at the eighth-fastest pace in the league and bleed points at the rim and assists to their opponents.
Black should get plenty of opportunities again in this spot.
