Why the New Orleans Pelicans Might Miss the Playoffs and the Play-in 

Image
 The Pelicans have had a disappointing season so far, with a record of 31 wins and 34 losses as of March 7, 2023[^2^][1]. They are currently ninth in their division and eleventh in their conference[^2^][1], which means they are out of the playoff picture and also unlikely to qualify for the play-in tournament. The play-in tournament is a new format introduced by the NBA in 2020 to determine the final two playoff spots for each conference. The teams that finish seventh through tenth in each conference compete in a series of games to decide who advances to the postseason. The Pelicans would need to climb at least two spots in their conference standings to have a chance at participating in the play-in tournament. There are several reasons why the Pelicans might not make it to either the playoffs or the play-in tournament this season. Some of them are: - Injuries: The Pelicans have been plagued by injuries throughout the season, affecting some of their key players such as Zion Williamson,

Justin Fields is a quarterback for the Chicago Bears and was selected as the 11th overall pick in the 2021 NFL draft. Fields played his college football at Ohio State University, where he was considered one of the best quarterbacks in the country. With his impressive stats, many people were excited to see what he could do on the field for the Chicago Bears. In his second year with the team, Fields played in 15 games and started in 12 of them. Let's take a closer look at his regular season stats: Completion Percentage (CMP%): 60.4% Yards (YDS): 2,242 Touchdowns (TD): 17 Interceptions (INT): 11 Passer Rating: 85.2 Looking at these stats, it's clear that Fields had an up-and-down season.

It starting to feel like last year‼️

Image
After a prolonged wait, it appears that New Orleans Pelicans' star forward Zion Williamson has to be out for some time yet. Since January 2, Zion had been heading towards three-on-three action&seemed close to coming back. Nonetheless, he aggravated his hamstring&will miss multiple weeks even beyond the All-Star break. The Pelicans have really been hitting the skids in Zion's absence, losing their last 10 games&14 of the previous 20. This has plunged them from a Western Conference heavyweight to 7th place in the standings at 29-28 - highlighting the hopes fans are pinning on Zion's return to court. It was while he was at the peak of his form that he got his second All-Star nod before getting injured to begin with. Naturally, it is an upsetting situation&Zion is feeling its weight keenly. Pelicans executive vice president of basketball operations David Griffin explains: 'It's fair to say not terribly well because he was so meticulous with rehab; unfort
