The New Orleans Pelicans picked up a big win on Saturday night, bringing their record to 16-42 and pushing, if just for a moment, the Brooklyn Nets to the third-worst record in the league at 15-40. And again, they’re not even tanking! Unfortunately for Adam Silver’s pariahs, the true tanking teams, matching the ineptitude of […]
A blizzard is coming to the Delaware Valley. Fitting since the Sixers’ season feels like it could be snowballing. After the team suffered an embarrassing loss to the lowly New Orleans Pelicans Saturday, they’ll travel to Minnesota (because that travel schedule makes sense) to take on the Timberwolves Sunday night — and they’ll do so […]
Sunday night’s contest is a matchup of two clubs trending in opposite directions in their respective conferences. Philadelphia has lost four straight games spanning across the All-Star break, most recently losing by double digits to the bottom-dwelling Pelicans last night. The Sixers sit in sixth place in the East, but three games back of Toronto, […]
Even if Joel Embiid does return for their next game, it’s time to raise some alarm bells. The Sixers lost their fourth game in a row, embarrassingly falling 126-111 to the New Orleans Pelicans Saturday night. Tyrese Maxey again ended up with game-high 27 despite a crooked shooting night, going 9-of-23 from the floor along […]

This could prove to be a very long weekend for the Philadelphia 76ers if things don’t turn around quickly. After dropping their last three contests, the Sixers kick off a road back-to-back with a visit to the New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday night. This is the start of their 11h back-to-back of the season so […]

Well, this isn’t optimal. Joel Embiid has been ruled out for the Philadelphia 76ers’ visit to the New Orleans Pelicans set for Saturday evening according to the team’s injury report. The news comes after the team announced back on Wednesday that Embiid had reported right shin soreness over the All-Star break and would be re-evaluated […]
Tonight, the Bucks play the Pelicans in The Big Easy. As you might be aware, New Orleans has the right to swap their first-round pick in this June’s draft with Milwaukee’s, thanks to 2020’s Jrue Holiday trade. They won’t actually receive that pick because the most favorable of the Bucks’ and Pelicans’ picks will go […]
With the NBA trade deadline long gone and All-Star weekend now over with, it’s officially the tail end of the season and the Milwaukee Bucks ramp it back up tonight against the New Orleans Pelicans at Smoothie King Center—God bless America! Last time these teams played, the Bucks were in the quandary of needing to […]

The inconsistency has consistently continued all the way up to the All-Star break for the Miami Heat.

It’s been a crazy week for the Minnesota Timberwolves. Between an international road trip, swirling rumors of a potential Giannis Antetokounmpo trade, and two actual trades that saw Rob Dillingham, Leonard Miller, and Mike Conley (for now) leave the organization, it’s been an intense set of days for the Wolves organization. With the trade deadline […]

Bennedict Mathurin is heading back out west. The former Arizona Wildcats All-American was traded to the Los Angeles Clippers Thursday in a deal that sent Ivica Zubec to the Indiana Pacers. ESPN’s Shams Charania reported that Clippers will also receive Isaiah Jackson, two first-round picks and a second-round pick. Mathurin is averaging a career-high 17.8 […]
The Knicks made one significant move this week, a multi-asset trade with the New Orleans Pelicans ahead of the deadline. In the deal, they acquired point guard Jose Alvarado—a Brooklynite who’s been on their radar for a while—in exchange for wing/forward Dalen Terry (recently acquired from the Bulls in a Guerschon Yabusele swap), two second-round […]

In keeping with decades of Wizards tradition, they made a major transaction while I was otherwise occupied. Today, it was meetings and deadlines. In previous years, I’ve been on flights, at business events, or behind the wheel on long drives. My first reaction to the Wizards trading for Anthony Davis: “This is nuts.” Then someone […]
It wasn’t easy, but the Milwaukee Bucks picked up their second win of the week, taking down the New Orleans Pelicans in a nail biter. The win indirectly improves the Bucks’ chances of keeping their pick, separating themselves from each other by nine games in the lottery standings. Ryan Rollins led the Bucks offense with […]
It’s trade-deadline eve and the Milwaukee Bucks host the New Orleans Pelicans in a game that may very well have profound implications on the Bucks’ future. Having swapped 2026 pick rights with the Pelicans as part of the Jrue Holiday trade, and the Pelicans trading their 2026 first-round pick to the Atlanta Hawks for Derik […]
It was by no means a pretty game, but the Charlotte Hornets locked in defensively to rally to beat the New Orleans Pelicans, 102-95.
