The New Orleans Pelicans will be in more a desperate predicament when they meet the Charlotte Hornets on the road Sunday. It also will involve a matchup of brothers as New Orleans' Lonzo Ball and Charlotte's LaMelo Ball are on the court. The Pelicans (30-37) are 11th in the Western Conference, needing to move up a spot to qualify for the play-in tournament.

The Bulls could use a floor general to organize the offense around their two All-Stars.

Led by Joel Embiids 37 points (11-20 FG, 12-12 FT), 13 rebounds and two blocks, the 76ers defeated the Pelicans, 109-107. Seth Curry added 16 points, six rebounds and five assists for the 76ers in the victory, while Lonzo Ball tallied 18 points, seven rebounds and three assists for the Pelicans in the losing effort. The 76ers improve to 46-21 on the season, while the Pelicans fall to 30-37.
