NEW ORLEANS -- The New Orleans Pelicans have reeled off a franchise-record-tying 10 consecutive victories, but on Friday night they face the prospect of hosting the Washington Wizards without All-Star forward Anthony Davis.
Davis, who has been on a tear during the Pelicans' winning streak, rolled his left ankle in the third quarter of a 114-101 road victory over the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday night. He is listed as doubtful for Friday night after an MRI on Thursday.
"Having him out there, we still have to execute; not having him out there, we still have to execute, and that's defensively and offensively," Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry said.
