Will the Pelicans and CJ McCollum get out of the play-in round and into the playoff bracket? Can Sacramento or San Antonio make a late season push? How confident are we in Los Angeles Lakers? Okay what about just LeBron James? Will the Clippers and Wolves hold off the charging Pelicans. All that and more in today's show. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
