Miami Heat eke out a close one on the road against Pelicans

The Miami Heat are coming off of a four-game win streak, albeit completely at home. Here they get to test their roster’s endurance against one of the most highly powered rosters in the league in the New Orleans Pelicans. This isn’t to say that Miami can’t go offensively nuclear on their own when their shooting gets going, but the Pelicans have their own personal Little Boy (think WW2) and without further ado.

Zion Williamson has only played 17 games, but in that time, the Pelicans are 9-8. This team has been trending upwards since his debut and they’re currently jousting in an attempt to land in the playoffs as an eighth seed.
