Warriors vs Pelicans: Prediction, odds, where to watch

The Warriors vs Pelicans matchup on Tuesday (March 28) is very important for both teams. The Golden State Warriors are just ahead by 0.5 games against the New Orleans Pelicans in the Western Conference standings.

The defending champions need all the wins they can get to ensure that they'll make it to the postseason. A win over the Pelicans would be huge for the Warriors in terms of the tiebreaker. The season series will be tied, but they'll also tie the win-loss percentage in the conference.

But if New Orleans gets the victory, they'll own the tiebreaker over Golden State. The Pelicans won their first two matchups of the season at home, but lost the third at Chase Center. Tuesday's game will be played again on Warriors ground.

The Golden State Warriors (39-37) are coming off a narrow 99-96 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. The defeat caused them to move down to the seventh seed in the Western Conference standings. They will need to win on Tuesday to increase their chances of avoiding the play-in tournament.

The New Orleans Pelicans (38-37) have won their last five games and have done so in very impressive fashion. The average margin of victory in those five wins is 23.8 points. The Pelicans are doing all of this without their best player in Zion Williamson and backup point guard Jose Alvarado.

It will be interesting to see if the defending champions can get back into the win column with just six important games left in their season. The Pelicans' win streak has propelled them back to the play-in tournament spots ahead of the LA Lakers, OKC Thunder, Dallas Mavericks and Utah Jazz.
