As the calendar turns to the final month of the year, the New Orleans Pelicans are riding a six-game losing streak into December. With a more winnable schedule ahead and the team starting to get closer to full strength, they could be due for their healthiest month so far this season.
While the team took an ugly pair of losses in their first two games of December against the Oklahoma City Thunder and Dallas Mavericks, there’s still a lot of things worth watching with such a young Pelicans roster.
However, if this team doesn’t get the ship back on course soon, they’ll be at imminent risk of missing the playoffs for the second-straight season.
