a 106-98 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks as 16.5-point home favorites Monday, while going UNDER the betting total for a sixth consecutive contest.\u00a0 The Clippers are being led by the play of forward Blake Griffin, who has scored 20 or more points in 29 straight games\u2014a team record since the franchise moved to Southern California.\u00a0 Los Angeles is 9-2 SU and 5-5-1 ATS after three or more consecutive UNDERs.<\/p>\n<p>The Clippers have won eight of their last nine against the Pelicans, including three in a row when playing in New Orleans.\u00a0 Los Angeles has compiled a 19-16 SU record when playing away from the Staples Center this season, including an 11-9 mark versus Western Conference opponents.\u00a0 Guard Darren Collison is a key player to watch down the stretch, as he\u2019s averaged 15.6 points on 51 percent shooting in the month of March.<\/p>\n<p>New Orleans has won and covered the number in three consecutive games, including a 109-104 overtime victory over the Brooklyn Nets as one-point home favorites Monday, while going OVER the betting total for a sixth consecutive affair.\u00a0 The Pelicans are being led by forward Anthony Davis, who is averaging 21.8 points and 10.5 rebounds per game, which can\u2019t be ignored when looking over the pro basketball odds page.\u00a0 He finished with 24 points and 14 rebounds versus the Nets.\u00a0 New Orleans is 17-17-1 ATS when playing in front of its home fans during the 2013-14 campaign.<\/p>\n<p>The Pelicans are 4-9 SU in this series under head coach Monty Williams, which is important to consider when making your pro basketball picks.\u00a0 New Orleans currently holds a plus-52 margin on the offensive glass, which has led directly to ranking sixth in the league in averaging 14.6 second-chance points per game.\u00a0 Davis has been a force on both ends of the floor, as he ranks second in the NBA in blocking 174 shots.<\/p>\n<p>Sports bettors will likely back the Pelicans due to their 10-2 ATS mark in their last 12 home games in this series.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t miss out on a winning season and let the NBA handicappers at Maddux Sports line your pockets with cash.\u00a0 Long term
