Game Thread: Don’t expect Trail Blazers’ travel issues getting to New Orleans to result in Pelicans’ victory

The New Orleans Pelicans are hosting the Portland Trail Blazers tonight inside the Smoothie King Center and both teams will be on the second night of a back-to-back.

While the Pelicans had no issues flying into New Orleans after last night’s victory over the Grizzlies, the Trail Blazers had no such luck, getting stuck in OKC an extra night.

Our flight from OKC to New Orleans, originally scheduled to depart following last night’s game, was postponed due to inclement weather. The team is now scheduled to depart OKC later this afternoon & go directly to the Smoothie King Arena upon arrival for tonight’s game.
