Following a commanding win over the Washington Wizards, the New Orleans Pelicans (4-16) will look to keep the momentum going as they open a back-to-back two-game series in Utah against the Jazz (12-6) Friday night. The Jazz will be a tall test for the Pels as Utah is on pace to another stellar regular season, currently sitting in third place in the Western Conference.
After point guard Devonte’ Graham returned to the lineup, New Orleans should have a near healthy roster, with Zion Williamson being the only key member out. The Jazz have no one listed on their injury report.
