This is a guy who seems to cash for us every time we bet him. Zion Williamson is fresh off of a 27 point performance against Minnesota and now gets an even better matchup against the Clippers. He has already faced this team and hung 32 points on their head, all we need tonight is 23 from the young stud.

Zion has hit this in four of his last six with one miss being one bucket short at 21 and the other being a loss to blowout. Tonights game projects to be a pick 'em and it is unlikely we see a blowout here. Assuming both teams are healthy this will be a star studded game where Zion will be one of many big names in the mix.

The last time out when Zion faced the against the Clippers, the Pelicans were without CJ McCollum so his usage may have gone up a little bit but this is still too soft a number in my opinion. Zion is one of those guys where if he gets the minutes he will typically use them very efficiently, in a game thats a toss up I think he sees 30+ minutes and takes us home. Let's roll!
