Read full writeup on X: https://x.com/PicksOffice Pelicans and Trail Blazers face off in a high-paced rematch, despite recent scoring struggles. New Orleans capitalizes on youth depth with Williamson and Ingram as scoring leaders. Portland's defensive lapses and Grant's offensive spurts mark opportunities for a high-scoring game. Both teams rank top in pace, suggesting a high-possession matchup, where defensive vulnerabilities could support a favorable over play.

“He has gotten better and better since we drafted him… He made an adjustment in the second half we said no more layups, every time you see a ball go block it.” - Head Coach Willie Green on Yves Missi’s debut Hop on the train now before it’s too late, because frankly don’t think we’ll ever see odds this good again. Yves Missi is a 20-year old 7-foot center out of Baylor that has raw athleticism and has a role on the team to act as a rim protector in the 2nd unit. Across two games so far, he’s averaged 22.3 MPG and has 3 blocks vs. Chicago and 2 blocks vs. Portland (a team he plays again today). And the advanced metrics look incredible here for upside when you look at the hustle stats. His 12.8 contested 2-point shots per games ranks #2 in the league right underneath Brook Lopez and is ahead of guys like Turner, Chet, Gobert, and Allen. Going back to the matchup again. It’s an above-average chance Missi sees opportunities considering Portland ranks third in team drives per game (59.5). Guys like Scoot, Simons, & Avdija can all be erratic underneath the rim which should be exactly where Missi collects his blocks. #PlayerProps

The Pelicans rookie center continued to get burn even with Zion Williamson’s return as the team hopes he can develop into their 5 of the future. Considering the player ahead of him on the depth chart is Daniel Theis this isn’t surprising. Missi has played 22 minutes in both games so far and gets a rematch from last game against the Portland Trailblazers. Missi has recorded 20 and 16 PRA and is averaging 10 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 1.5 assists through two games. Missi’s role seems secure through two games, and I expect him to build on his strong play.
