Game 66: Raptors at Pelicans!

Come At Us Brow!

• After a few tough losses against Detroit and Houston, the Raptors head back out on the road to New Orleans and take on the pesky Pelicans
• It's no secret at this point that Anthony Davis wants out of New Orleans. The trade deadline has come and gone however and he remains a Pelican. Though the whole fiasco cost GM Dell Demps his job, it's likely that Davis will be dealt over the Summer.
• Jrue Holiday, who is have a great year and absolutely torched the Raptors last time, is listed as out due to an abdominal strain. Also out for the Pels is E'Twaun Moore with Jahill Okafor listed as questionable. Only Fred Van Vleet is out for the Raptors

Game 14: Pelicans at Raptors!

The Wind Under Their Wings

• Raptors are back in action after defeating the New York Knicks on Saturday. Though it was a quiet game from Kawhi Leonard, Kyle Lowry and Serge Ibaka, Toronto still found a way to get the win. Their bench gave them some impressive numbers from players like Jonas Valanciunas, OG Anunoby and Delon Wright. Pascal Siakam had a phenomenal night which included 3 made 3pt shots. He is your Eastern Conference Player Of The Week
• The Pelicans lost DeMarcus Cousins in the off season to Golden State. Though they did pick up a talented big man in Julius Randle who the Lakers let walk. Jrue Holiday and Anthony "The Brow" Davis are also capable of having All-Star nights.
• Nikola Mirotic is a day-to-day decision due to a sore ankle and Elfrid Payton is likely out as well with an ankle. He's a game time decision
