Now Alvarado is out of the picture and Jordan Poole is out of the Pelicans rotation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Minnesota is favored by -9.5 but Fears should still come off the bench behind Trey Murphy and Fears has recorded 15+ PR in 15\/17 games (including L5) that New Orleans has lost by double digits. The total is also 236.5 so there should be ample scoring opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n AJ Geen has fallen short of this line in 8\/9 games against teams that rank top 10 in above-the-break defense without Giannis Antetokounmpo in the mix while averaging only 6.8 points per game. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Green relies on his teammates to generate open looks for him and without\u00a0Antetokounmpo on the court he averages -0.63 points less per 36 minutes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Now Green faces a brutal matchup against the Indiana Pacers who rank #1 in above-the-break & catch-&-shoot defense and #2 in threes allowed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Pacers are much softer down low as they rank 28th in points in the paint. Green has faced Indiana twice this season with similar minutes & shot volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n He scored only 6 points in a game without Giannis in December but 14 in a November game with\u00a0Antetokounmpo on the court. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Green is coming off back-to-back friendly matchups where he scored 17 points against Chicago & 20 points against New Orleans, so this is a great spot to fade an inflated number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/a>\n SPECIAL OFFER FOR FIRST TIME SUBSCRIBERS<\/p>\n <\/div>\n Expert NBA Props for Friday: Jeremiah Fears New Orleans Pelicans OVER 12.5 Points + Rebounds (-130)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
