The Pelicans are starting to find their groove again.
New Orleans went into Boston Tuesday night and snapped the Celtics’ seven-game win streak. That win was the Pelicans’ third straight and pushed New Orleans to three games above .500 for the second time all season.
Now the Pelicans have to hop on a plane and fly south to Atlanta to take on the struggling Hawks. The Hawks are neck and neck with Orlando and Sacramento for worst record in the NBA, but it’s worth pointing out that Atlanta gave New Orleans all they could handle in the Smoothie King Center earlier in the season.
