The New Orleans Pelicans will face the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday evening for the fourth and final time this season. Although the Pelicans have enjoyed some success in recent years against their foe, they haven't fared nearly as well over the course of entire schedules.
The Pelicans are poised to set a new NBA record for most games missed by their roster. It is conceivable their personnel will miss 350 contests in the span of just one 82-game time frame. Conversely, the Spurs missed 995 games in the 10 years prior to 2015-16, and this season, their roster has missed the second least amount of games in the league.
