The New Orleans Pelicans are one of the emerging young teams sitting at 24-14 and third in the Western Conference. The Detroit Pistons and San Antonio Spurs, meanwhile, have 11 and 12 wins, respectively, meaning with their powers combined they don’t even equal a whole Pelicans squad. Tonight, the Pistons and Spurs face off, and both seem like solid bets to finish the year with two of the four worst records in the entire NBA. It’s a game that must happen, and therefore it is. Feel the excitement.
Cade Cunningham is out, which we all knew.
