There are no changes to the Pelicans starting lineup: Davis, Asik, Gee, Cunningham, and Cole. If that changes after the signing of Bryce Dejean-Jones, we’ll try to let you know. Gordon is practicing but still listed as Out, and Evans and Pondexter will not return this season.
Gentry said pre-game that the remaining 29 games are a new season for them. Well, they better start 1-0 against the Sixers. Sure, they’ve won 8 games and the Pelicans are down 3 pieces, including 2 8-figure guys, but the Pelicans should win this game. If it’s a new season, then I want to see some new plays, some new energy, and maybe some new rotations.
