‘Point God’ unstoppable again?
The New Orleans Pelicans and Phoenix Suns face off in Game 4 of the series. The home side last recorded a loss in front of their own crowd, which means they now trail the three-time NBA Finals champions 2-1 in the series.
New Orleans Pelicans – Statistics & current form
Head coach Willie Green’s team did concede a loss at home to the Suns last time out, but it was a close one at 111-114. In addition, Brandon Ingram continues to perform very well.
The small forward delivered the best output of all players on the court with 34 points and confirmed his good performances from the two previous games.
Only Jalen Brunson from Dallas, Donovan Mitchell from Utah and Luka Doncic from Dallas topped his average scoring value in the postseason (29.7).
Positive mention must also be made of CJ McCollum, who is hardly inferior to Ingram in terms of his offensive strength, averaging 26 points per game for the Louisiana franchise.
Phoenix Suns – Statistics & current form
The Suns are currently without Devin Booker, their leading scorer. However, head coach Monty Williams still has Chris Paul at hand. The “Point God” turned up the heat in the last game, especially in the decisive fourth quarter.
The guard scored 19 of his 28 points in this period and more or less single-handedly put his team on the winning track in the crunch time. The Arizona hoopsters regained their previously lost home court advantage with the win and can now relax a little more.
New Orleans Pelicans – Phoenix Suns Tip
For the clash between the New Orleans Pelicans and Phoenix Suns on 25/04/2022 from 03:30, betting on more than 34.5 points and assists by Chris Paul from the visitors seems profitable.
Without Devin Booker, the point guard will have to step up as a scorer and Paul already did justice to this task in the last meeting with the basketballers from the Big Easy with 28 points.
In general, “CP3” is acting very calmly in this series due to his great experience. He has already exceeded the selected limit of points and successful assists for his teammates in two of the three completed encounters.
