2 Expert NBA Parlay Picks for Cavaliers vs Pelicans

1. Bet on Cleveland Cavaliers ATS

The Cleveland Cavaliers have been on fire this season, sitting undefeated at 8-0, while the Pelicans are still finding their footing at 3-5 and struggling with injuries. With Cleveland’s momentum and New Orleans missing key pieces, I’m easily backing the Cavs to cover the spread on the road.

Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram may be leading the Pelicans with 24.6 points per game on 50% shooting alongside forward Zion Williamson’s 21.8 points and 8.0 boards a night. Williams is listed as a game time decision (per Cavaliers vs Pelican injuries), but even then, New Orleans is simply outmatched here.

Cavs shooting guard Donovan Mitchell is putting up 23 points per game, while point guard Darius Garland follows with 20 points and 6.5 assists. Add to that center Jarrett Allen’s reliable double-double each night, averaging 15 points and 11.6 rebounds, and you’ve got a team that can put up numbers on both ends.

Offensively, Cleveland’s in the upper echelon, averaging 122 points per game – second only to Boston – while the Pelicans rank 26th at 107 points. Plus, the Cavs are lights out from the field, leading the league with an insane 52.3% shooting percentage, and they bring a solid defense, ranking eighth, holding teams to 109 points per outing.

This one’s straightforward: the Cavaliers are a playoff-caliber team right now, and the Pelicans aren’t in the same conversation. Take Cleveland giving the points and watch this one turn into a lopsided affair before the final buzzer.

Bet on Cleveland Cavaliers -7.5 

2. Cavs PG Darius Garland 20+ Points

Sorry, Pelicans fans, but I’m sticking with the Cavs on both ends of this parlay. I’m backing Garland to fill it up here, and the setup looks perfect for him to have another big scoring night. With Pelicans’ guards CJ McCollum and DeJounte Murray still sidelined until late November, the Pelicans’ backcourt is thin, giving Garland all the room he needs to score on all three levels.

Consider this: all eyes will naturally be on Mitchell, the Cavs’ top scorer, which means Garland will likely be matched up with either New Orleans Brandon Boston Jr. or Jose Alvarado. And let’s be real – that’s a mismatch in Garland’s favor. Plus, he’s just coming off a monster 39-point game against the Bucks, shooting 15-of-22 from the floor. The guy’s already in rhythm, and this Pelicans defense won’t be able to keep him in check. I’m banking on Garland to light it up again, and so should you!

Bet this Pick: Darius Garland 20+ points (+210)
