The New Orleans Pelicans will have one eye on the NCAA tournament when it kicks off today, as there are a number of possible draft picks who will be featured.
The Pelicans currently find themselves tied for the 8th-worst record in the NBA, which gives them a fighting chance of landing a top-four pick and long shot odds at the first pick overall.
While that would be amazing, it’s more likely that the Pels will fall into the 8-12 range in the lottery once things shake out in the regular season.
