There does not appear to be a timetable for Mirotic (ankle) and Moore (leg) to return, but #Pelicans are hoping this stretch of 1 game in next 6 days helps. Davis on the hiatus: "Hopefully it helps a lot. You get a chance to recover, rest up and let our bodies heal."

The Pelicans' defensive rating with Julius Randle on the floor tonight was 92.1. With Anthony Davis, it was 95.5. Related - those two drew a combined *16* fouls tonight. Why is it related? More fouls drawn -> fewer transition opportunities for your opponent. - More Pelicans Tweets
