While the New Orleans Pelicans have been one of the worst teams in the NBA this season, they've recently had success, winning five out of their last 10 games. Featuring wins over the Utah Jazz, Phoenix Suns, San Antonio Spurs, and Sacramento Kings, they'll be tasked with a much bigger challenge on Tuesday night.

Finishing their four-game road trip, the Pelicans will matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday night. The Lakers, boasting a Western Conference-best six-game winning streak, will put that on the line as they look to further their position as the second seed in the conference. However, they're in jeopardy of being without one of their best players, according to a recent report.
