The Pelicans are in a tailspin after a 41-point road loss to the Mavericks on Tuesday.
The New Orleans Pelicans fell to 4-11 on the season after a 132-91 blowout loss to the Dallas Mavericks. New Orleans was again without multiple injured players, including Zion Williamson, Dejounte Murray, Herb Jones, CJ McCollum, Jordan Hawkins, and Jose Alvarado. The team has lost 11 of its last 13 games. Tuesday's game was the Pelicans second NBA Cup Game of the year."We got beat. There's no way around it," Green told reporters after the game.
Things will get more challenging for the Pelicans as they travel on the road to face the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday night. Cleveland lost their first game of the season on Tuesday to the Boston Celtics but beat the Pelicans last week in New Orleans. The Pelicans hope to get some key players back soon, starting with CJ McCollum, who has recently started 5-on-5 contact drills in practice. McCollum has missed the last 11 games with an oblique injury and is close to returning. The veteran guard averages 18.8 points, 4.0 assists, and 2.3 steals this season.
