Don't look now, but the New Orleans Pelicans are playing some really good basketball. Anthony Davis is leading the charge, Tyreke Evans is spacing the floor and providing solid playmaking with the starters while Jrue Holiday has given the Pelicans a nice, two-way wing off the bench. That trio seems to be the lighting rod for the Pelicans at this moment, as the Pelicans are winners of five of their last six and looking to continue their run.
As a result, New Orleans' defensive statistics are beginning to shine, going from the bottom of the league to sixth overall in the last 15 games.
