I think the Pelicans are going to win tonight and I have discernible reason for believing so.

Willie Green is shifting Devonte’ Graham to the bench in favor of Jaxson Hayes ahead of tonight’s matchup against the Mavericks. It’s the correct move. Have a look at DG’s monthly true shooting percentages.
OCT – 53.0%
NOV – 50.9%
DEC – 54.5%
JAN – 51.3%
FEB – 36.0% – 7:19 PM

Pelicans are starting Jaxson Hayes tonight. Devonte Graham slides to the bench.
Graham is averaging 24.9 minutes in his last four games. I’d expect him around that tonight. – 7:15 PM

Reggie Bullock (hip), Trey Burke (shoulder) and Frank Ntilikina (ankle) are all out tonight vs. #Pelicans, according to Jason Kidd. They all had been listed as questionable by Dallas. Already ruled out for Mavericks were Marquese Chriss, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Theo Pinson – 6:37 PM
Jim Eichenhofer @Jim_Eichenhofer
Willie Green on Mavericks pre- and post-trade deadline: “They were (already) trending in the right direction defensively, but they added more shooting, another dynamic ballhandler who can create his own shot with (Spencer) Dinwiddie, and a bunch of other guys who can play.” – 6:32 PM
