Game 22: Pelicans moving Tim Frazier into starting lineup, looking to minimize early turnovers

The New Orleans Pelicans continue to find themselves victims of losing streaks, currently amidst a four-game slide. The first task at managing such a trend will require the Pels to cut down on their season-high 22 turnovers on Monday night against the Boston Celtics.

To that end, head coach Alvin Gentry has elected to insert former Wizard Tim Frazier into the starting lineup, likely with the notion that Frazier’s inclusion will minimize opening period turnovers and give Jrue Holiday a chance to operate off the ball as he recently requested.
