LA Lakers at New Orleans Pelicans is an entertaining NBA match to be played on Sunday, April 14, at the Smoothie King Center. The Pelicans will be in a good mood after winning all five of their last games. This excellent run has secured them the No. 6 seed in the West. However, they must win the LA Lakers encounter to prevent a tie with the Suns. The Lakers, on the other hand, blew their chances of avoiding the 9-10 play-in tournament after costly back-to-back losses against the Warriors and the Timberwolves. The tough game against the Pelicans is a must-win to fortify their No. 8 seed in the play-in tournaments. The Warriors and the Kings will play two bottom feeders in the West with nothing to play for. The pressure is definitely on the Lakers!
