The LA Lakers will welcome the New Orleans Pelicans, seeking to return to winning ways in the NBA. They have dropped to fourth in the West while their visitors sit second from last in the Conference. Read on for our prediction of this match.
The Lakers, who are on the second night of a back-to-back, are coming off a 123-116 loss to the Warriors. Their fifth loss in the last eight games snapped a two-match winning run.
J.J. Redick’s men have a tough last six games remaining to conclude the regular season and haven’t yet confirmed a playoff berth. With a 46-30 record, they are just 1.5 games from dropping into the play-in.
The Pelicans have already been eliminated from postseason contention and are only playing for pride. They have been one of the worst-performing teams this season, with their 21-55 record only better than that of three other teams.
The Pels, who are seeking to snap a five-game losing streak to the Lakers, are coming off a 114-98 loss to the Clippers. This was their seventh loss in the last 10 games and 31st in 38 away fixtures.
The Pels have been plagued by injuries throughout the season and for this trip have seven players ruled out.
