4) The Week 20 schedule for New Orleans consists of two games against the pair of clubs with the worst records in the Western Conference, starting with Monday vs. Phoenix (18-43) and wrapping Sunday at Dallas (18-42). In between, the Pelicans will visit San Antonio (36-25) on Wednesday.
5) New Orleans (33-26) enters a busy Monday around the NBA in sixth place in the Western Conference, but a win over Phoenix tonight would move the Pelicans into fifth place, for at least 24 hours. Portland (34-26) currently holds the fifth spot, but New Orleans has the tiebreaking advantage, based on a 2-1 lead in the season series vs. the Trail Blazers. The Pelicans are also only two games behind third-place San Antonio and fourth-place Minnesota (37-26).
