15. New Orleans Pelicans (9-7)
Last week: 17
The New Orleans Pelicans continue their up and down start to the season. After losing six games in a row, in which Anthony Davis missed half of those contests, the Pelicans have won five of their last six.
This team is confusing as ever as they still have their lapses, and look great one night and absolutely lost another – mostly, when Davis has an off night or isn’t at his best. This team has little-to-no room for error and it has to drive Davis crazy.
The Pelicans need to make an addition. I’m not sure if it makes sense or not, but perhaps adding Carmelo Anthony would be worth the risk. What other option do they have?
