How to Watch New Orleans Pelicans at Boston Celtics: Live Stream, TV Channel, Start Time
The Pelicans (16–27) are coming off a big loss but before that had won three of four games and looked like a team focused on the play-in tournament rather than the draft lottery.
They travel Monday to take on a suddenly hot Celtics squad (22–22) that has won four of five, including a thriller over the Bulls in their last outing.

Boston scored eight points in 97 seconds to steal a win over Chicago, helped by quality defense and Robert Williams III sinking four free throws in the final 31 seconds.
Boston has climbed back to .500 for the 11th time this season, but the team has only climbed over .500 twice all year. The Celtics have been one of the most inconsistent teams in the NBA; their longest winning streak was three games and their longest losing streak was also three games. Trading wins and losses will not build the momentum the Celtics need to be a serious playoff contender in the Eastern Conference.
However, they have gone 4–1 in their last five games, which could be a sign that the season is turning around.
Monday marks the first game of the season between New Orleans and Boston. Last year, New Orleans swept the series 2–0, winning the games by a combined 11 points.
New Orleans has gone 4–6 in its last 10 games after seeming to have its best stretch of the season in December, going 6–2 and looking like a contender for a spot in the play-in tournament.
