The Pelicans have approached the top ten in the West, although catching up with Portland is not an easy task. The team has added recently, but this is far from what the fans were counting on at the beginning of the season. Of course, Zion Wilmson’s injury affected the game, as only one leader remained on the floor, who was Brandon Ingram. In the last away game New Orleans confidently dealt with New York (102-91). As you can see, Stan Van Gundy’s wards can perform much better, but there are not enough personnel ahead of the home match against the “pacers”, who began to show signs of life.
Chicago continues to play without Zach Lavin and Lonzo Ball. Of course, this affects the game of the bulls. They began to lose frequently. Over the past two weeks they have scored only one victory, defeating Cleveland at home (117:104). In the last two matches Billy Donovan’s wards were again defeated. This time the Bulls failed to cope with Milwaukee (90:94) and Orlando (95:114). All this cost “Chicago” a place at the top. Now the bulls are in third place. Miami and Brooklyn beat the Bulls.
