The New Orleans Pelicans are red-hot. They’ve won two games in a row and have welcomed the return of Jrue Holiday, who had missed the first few weeks of the season attending his wife and her unfortunate illness.
However, at least for the moment, it appears that he’s officially back with the team. Automatically, that should signal an improvement moving forward. During the first three weeks of the season, this team simply didn’t have enough talent to compete on most nights. Holiday will help change that narrative.
Will it be enough to turn this season around for New Orleans? Unlikely. However, this is good news for a team that was desperately looking for a spark.
