The New Orleans Pelicans (14-13) will play the Houston Rockets (20-4), home of the NBA’s winningest record at this point in the season on Monday evening. Tip-off is scheduled for 7:00 p.m.
The tall order will be made even more difficult because the Pelicans will be playing on the second night of a back-to-back, and there is a decent chance Anthony Davis could be sidelined.
During New Orleans win against the Philadelphia 76ers, Davis was seen grimacing on several occasions and reaching for the same area of his recent left abductor strain injury.
