TORONTO -- The New Orleans Pelicans are in territory that they have not seen for a while.

By defeating the Indiana Pacers 117-112 Tuesday night, they are 6-5, the first time they have owned a winning record since the 2014-15 season.

They will try to stay above .500 Thursday night when they play the Toronto Raptors at the Air Canada Centre.

The Raptors (6-4) are coming off a 119-114 win over the Chicago Bulls on Tuesday, a game in which their 23-point, third-quarter lead dwindled to three points in the final minute.
