The Pelicans finally snapped a nine-game losing streak with a 143-130 victory over the Bulls at the Smoothie King Center. Williamson tied his season high with 29 points. Saddiq Bey added 20 points and 14 rebounds, including a pair of key three-pointers, to maintain the lead against Chicago.
The Pelicans remain in New Orleans to host the Grizzlies in a game that also counts towards the NBA Cup. Memphis has a 6-12 record this season, unable to contain Jamal Murray, and the Grizzlies lost their last game against the Nuggets by 10 points. That game marked Jackson's return from injury, which occurred during the same period that Memphis has been without Morant. With these significant absences, Zach Edey has stepped up, but now he himself is likely to miss Wednesday's game due to a head injury.

Our New Orleans Pelicans vs Memphis Grizzlies Prediction
Once again, the Grizzlies, for various reasons, will not be able to field their best possible starting five. Losing Zach Edey seems like a significant loss, even though it's only his second year. "Zach is a huge part of what we do, both offensively and defensively," said Cedric Coward regarding his absence.
The Pelicans scored as many as 78 points in the paint against the Bulls. This could be another game where the Pelicans somehow capitalize on Memphis's injury absences.
Our prediction for Pelicans vs Grizzlies is: Pelicans +2.
