The New Orleans Pelicans have endured a disappointing start to the season, but the team is beginning to turn things around, and while the wins haven’t been flowing the way they’d like, they’ve been able to put up a fight against quality opponents, particularly when playing at home.

On Monday night, they’ll host the Boson Celtics at the Smoothie King Center. The Pelicans knocked off the Cleveland Cavaliers by a score of 114-108 in overtime on Friday to put a halt to a four-game losing skid, limiting Cleveland to just three points in the extra session.
Boston Celtics:
The Celtics dropped their last game to the San Antonio Spurs by a score of 108-105 on Saturday. A minor victory for the Celtics in that one, however, is that they now hold the distinction of being the first team to score 100 or more points against the Spurs this season.

Now they visit a Pelicans team that they swept last season, including a 104-98 victory in Louisiana on March 6. Isaiah Thomas scored a team-high 27 points in that one, including 14 points in the deciding fourth quarter.
New Orleans Pelicans:
The Pelicans got six of their nine points in the overtime session against the Cavaliers from star center Anthony Davis. He finished that contest against one of, if not the top teams in the Eastern Conference, with 31 points to go along with 12 rebounds.

Boston is just a more reliable wager right now, given the Jekyl and Hyde nature of the Pelicans’ season. The Celtics have shown an ability to score the basketball against any opponent, so they’ll be able to keep up with New Orleans, even on the road.
