NEW ORLEANS -- The New Orleans Pelicans, winners of four of their last five games to improve to 7-6, are garnering attention across the league with the eye-popping numbers posted by Anthony Davis and DeMarcus Cousins.
The Atlanta Hawks, at 2-11, have the worst record in the NBA but have been playing opponents closer of late.
Despite committing turnovers at a rate usually reserved for the digital clock in Times Square that tracks the national debt, the Pelicans are the clear favorites entering Monday night's game at the Smoothie King Center.
