After a practice that drew ten-thousand fans to the Smoothie King Center on Saturday evening, the New Orleans Pelicans and their fully-retooled team turn around and take a road trip to face the Atlanta Hawks for their first game of the preseason.
Interestingly, tonight’s game will feature a starting lineup of Lonzo Ball, Jrue Holiday, Brandon Ingram, Zion Williamson, and Derrick Favors.
Favors is listed as questionable for tonight’s game, so he could end up a scratch, likely moving Jahlil Okafor into the starting five.
