Pelicans shootaround update presented by HUB International: New Orleans trying to continue recent road success

CLEVELAND – While facing a 4.5-game deficit behind eighth-place Memphis in the Western Conference standings and with only 35 games remaining, New Orleans (18-29) has little margin for error in its pursuit of a playoff berth. As a result, the Pelicans will likely need to post numerous road victories in their final 18 away contests of 2019-20. The good news is that New Orleans has already shown an impressive ability to win on the road lately, including against very formidable hosts. Since Dec. 23, the Pelicans are 6-2 away from Louisiana, a stretch that includes triumphs in venues such as Portland, Denver and Memphis.
