Stephon Castle Points Prop is currently Over/Under 16.5 (-125/-105).
Key Factors
Favors Over
In terms of three-pointers, the Spurs's terrific 41.7% rate of converted threes at home comes in as the 6th-highest in the NBA this year.
This year, opposing starting SGs have tallied 6.1 three attempts per game (4th-highest in the league) against the Pelicans, resulting in a positive matchup.
Favors Under
The Spurs have played at the 3rd-most sluggish pace-of-play in the league at home this year.
The Pelicans have played at the 3rd-most sluggish tempo in the NBA this year, which should decrease opportunities for the Spurs.
The San Antonio Spurs rank as the 10th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the NBA with the home court advantage this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them can therefore eliminate extra opportunities for scoring and assists).
The matchup vs. the New Orleans Pelicans may be a challenging one for getting to the free-throw line; the opposition's starting SGs have attempted a measly 1.2 free throws per game over the last 15 games (least in the NBA).
