After a tough loss to the Warriors Tuesday, the New Orleans Pelicans have a point to prove.
They will look to make it known, that their fantastic show against Golden State was no fluke, and that they’re ready to become a consistent team in the NBA.
Step one of that task is Thursday night, against the Indiana Pacers.
The Pacers are currently 13-13 after a loss last night against the Miami Heat. Indiana will be on the second of a back-to-back, with both being on the road.
To put it simply, the Pelicans have a great chance at a “schedule win”, as New Orleans will be rested up for the game.
