With last night’s loss to the Memphis Grizzlies, the New Orleans Pelicans are on the verge of being eliminated from the play-in games.
The Pels would now have to win all three of their remaining games with the Spurs losing all four of theirs for them to overtake San Antonio for the 10th and final spot.
It is still possible, but with just three games left, the Pelicans need to focus on the future and that starts by shutting down Eric Bledsoe.
