The Pelicans are dealing with a lot of injuries. Herb Jones, Zion, Trey Murphy, Hawkins, and Murray could all be out

Hmm can we win this?.. sure.. will we won't this?... I'm not sure. We are home so that may help but it once again comes down to the simple stuff. Can they hit open shoots? Can they limited turnovers? Second chances point? Can they lock in defensively for a full game? Will they let some random player go off on them? Just never know what your gonna get. So idk
Let's see...

Paolo for MVP if we can't win this game

Will be interesting to see how we guard Zion if he plays. Usually we play them well because Paolo can withstand him pretty well and WCJ does a good job against him too. If he's against Franz, and then Ingram is guarded by KCP, might be some issues on defense.

I expect to see this team playing HARD tonight. Hopefully being back home fires them up and gives them the confidence boost to knock down their shots.

No Paolo and WCJ?

Against arguably the mos physical punisher in the post outside of Embiid?

Hmmmm....

Hawkins, Jones, Murphy, McCollum and Murray are all OUT tonight for New Orleans.

Zion is questionable.

Honestly would be an unacceptable game to lose given their injuries.

Key matchups I'm looking forward to:

Suggs vs Alvarado
Franz vs Ingram

If Zion plays we'll have our hands full. I think our win probability should be around 71%.

Do we run a 9 man rotation? Do you want them too?

We're favored and they've got multiple injuries.

Time to lock in and snap the losing streak.

This is shaping up to be a competitive game with all the injuries they have. No Zion, CJ, Murray, Murphy or Hawkins? That’s a lot of offense they’re without.

Make It Magic!

Incoming 40 pts for Ingram tonight?
