This is the first time this season that the Pelicans have needed to move to a later date, and with how things are trending across the league, one shouldn’t expect it to be the last.
From the news earlier in the morning, it was apparent that the Sixers would probably be unable to come up with eight healthy bodies in time for tonight’s matchup against the Pelicans.
