The NBA Play-In Tournament is underway, with the 7-10 seeds in each conference battling their way into the 16-team playoffs. The Lakers and Hawks have already punched their respective tickets with last night's victories. Tonight, we see the Bulls take on the Raptors and the Thunder face the Pelicans, as we turn our attention to New Orleans.
C.J. McCollum has been an integral part of the Pelicans since coming over from the Trailblazers last season. Averaging 20.9 points, 4.4 rebounds and 5.7 assists per game, he's been a consistent contributor all season long, and our model anticipates another big night from the shooting guard in tonight's play-in matchup.
