It’s a quick turnaround for the New Orleans Pelicans as they look to snap a two-game losing streak in Washington D.C.
The Pelicans, who lost to the New York Knicks on Friday night, will take on the Washington Wizards, who also lost on Friday. The Wizards fell to the Toronto Raptors, 125-107.
New Orleans had an injury scare with Anthony Davis against the Knicks when he hurt his right quad/hip while coming down on a shot attempt in the third quarter. Davis left the game and was questionable to return but ultimately came back for the final three minutes.
This will be the first of two games against the Wizards in a five-day span. Washington travels to New Orleans on Wednesday (Nov. 28) to play the Pelicans once again.
