New Orleans Pelicans (21-55) and Milwaukee Bucks (41-34) will lock horns in an inter-conference matchup on Sunday night. The Pelicans will be shooting for a home win to finish the regular season strongly after a somewhat disappointing campaign. Willie Green’s side has been poor lately, dropping seven of their last 10 games, including their most recent game against the Clippers. They’ll play the Lakers on Saturday before hosting the Bucks at the Smoothie King Center.

Milwaukee Bucks, meanwhile, are fighting to nail down one of the two remaining automatic qualification spots in the Eastern Conference. The Bucks are sixth in the standings, 5.0 games ahead of the seventh-placed Magic and 0.5 games behind the Pistons. A win against the Pelicans could help them leapfrog the Pistons to the fifth position and possibly grab the No. 5 seed in the conference. It’s certainly a critical matchup for Milwaukee.
