New Orleans Pelicans Player Grades: Depleted Pelicans fall short against Indiana Pacers

The New Orleans Pelicans’ injury situation highlighted tonight’s loss to the Indiana Pacers in a big way.

The Pelicans added Jrue Holiday to their list of injuries as he suffered a left toe injury. While a valiant effort was put up by the injury prone Pelicans, they could not outlast a Pacers team playing well and effective.

New Orleans cut a fairly large-deficit for most of the contest to just six with just over a minute to go, but could not overcome the Pacers defense all night. That and Indiana’s 45.6% shooting was too much for the Pelicans to overcome.
