New Orleans Pelicans
Record: 11-11
Grade: C
The New Orleans Pelicans have really struggled ever since starting the year out 4-0. They continue to have these streaks where they win four, lose five, win three and then lose two. However, especially in a challenging West, this is probably how their season is going to go.
Led by Anthony Davis, the Pelicans don’t have much in a second option – though, Jrue Holiday is having a superb season. You kid of don’t want Holiday to be your second option, and if he is you’re probably not on a great team.
And that’s exactly the place where the Pelicans find themselves. The hope is that this team can do enough to keep Davis happy in the long-run. Though, if the losses keep piling up, I find that hard to believe.
