Spurs vs Pelicans Fantasy NBA: The San Antonio Spurs will enter the game after losing to the Oklahoma City Thunder despite a 27 points outing by DeJounte Murray. On the other hand, the New Orleans Pelicans will hit the floor after losing to the Bucks by 4 points despite a 34 points night by Zion Williamson. More information about SAS vs NOP Dream11 will be given here.
Spurs’ season: The Spurs have done an amazing job in the month of February, where they have burnt out teams under the leadership of DeMar Derozan, who brings amazing skills to the fore. The youth in the Spurs team also makes them a devastating combination of youth and experienced players. The Spurs are placed 5th in the NBA standings for the Western Conference.
Pelicans’ season: Pelicans harbor one of the most exciting players in the league, Zion Williamson. Williamson and Brandon Ingram form a terrific pair in the Forward spots but they still lack the talent around them to compete at the highest level. New Orleans has a losing record and they have a long road ahead if they want to make the playoffs.

SAS vs NOP Dream11 NBA Scores, Fantasy Picks:
Zion Williamson
PPG: 25.6
RPG: 6.8
APG: 3.3
TPG: 2.4
PFP: 43
Zion’s body and flexibility aid him to terrorize his opponents and he is a nightmare to defend. Williamson is dominating teams in only his second year and he can be a future MVP if he develops in the current trajectory. The PF has scored 30+ points in the 3 of the last 5 games. He is an excellent choice as the Super-Player in the Dream11 NBA setup.
Brandon Ingram
PPG: 24.0
RPG: 5.3
APG: 4.7
TPG: 2.3
PFP: 39
Ingram is a wiry player along with a great shooting touch on multiple sides of the floor. Ingram has formed one of the most formidable duos with Zion Williamson and he is one of the reasons why the Pelicans can’t be taken lightly as a squad.
Dejounte Murray
PPG: 15.6
RPG: 7.3
APG: 5.1
SPG: 1.6
TPG: 1.6
PFP: 37
Murray has developed admirably under the tutelage of both Greg Popovich and DeMar DeRozan. Dejounte is still a young player and has a long way to go but finds himself in the right culture to become a team player. His rebounding skills at the Guard position also make him a lucrative prospect for the future.
Lonzo Ball
PPG: 14.4
APG: 5.2
RPG: 4.2
SPG: 1.4
TPG: 2.1
PFP: 31
Lonzo hasn’t been a star player in this league yet but he is still an above-average player who can contribute in multiple ways. This Pelicans’ offensive style may not be the best fit for him and rumors suggest that he might be traded before the deadline in March.
SAS vs NOP Dream11 Sleeper Picks
Patty Mills: PPG: 13.3 APG: 2.7 TPG: 1.0 PFP: 20
Patty has done an amazing job off the bench for the Spurs and with experience, he seems to grow even more lethal. He has given his squad great depth at the PG spot.
LaMarcus Aldridge: PPG: 13.9 RPG: 4.5 PFP: 26
Aldridge is not the same star as he was with Trailblazers but still can give effective production at the Forward spot. He will play a major role in a game where his team is missing a bunch of main players.
Steven Adams: PPG: 8.2 RPG: 9.2 SPG: 1.0 TPG: 1.6 PFP: 26
Adams hasn’t profited off much playing with Lonzo, as he did with Westbrook but he is a heart and hustle guy who gives his all on the floor. He has averaged 14 RPG in the last two games.
Eric Bledsoe: PPG: 12.5 APG: 3.5 RPG: 3.4 TPG: 1.7 PFP: 22
Lonnie Walker IV: PPG: 10.8 RPG: 3.0 TPG: 1.1 PFP: 22
Josh Hart: PPG: 9.1 RPG: 7.3 TPG: 0.8 PFP: 19
