The New Orleans Pelicans are heading back to the friendly confines of the Smoothie King Center as they look to snap a three-game losing streak.
New Orleans has an 8-1 record at home this season. The Pelicans are one of just three teams in the NBA with only one home loss this season joining the Philadelphia 76ers (10-1) and the Los Angeles Clippers (8-1).
Unfortunately for the Pelicans, they haven’t had a lot of success away from home. New Orleans dropped to 2-9 on the road with its recent three-game losing streak.
Anthony Davis is listed as questionable after missing the Pelicans' loss to the Wizards on Saturday night with a hip strain. For the Celtics, starting shooting guard Jaylen Brown is doubtful with a right lower back bruise.
