This season the Pelicans have been one of the top teams in the Western Conference before falling down in the standings.

New Orleans is currently seventh in the West with 30 wins and 29 losses. The team is not far behind the third place which is occupied by the Kings (32-25).

For Pelicans’ star Zion Williamson it is his third season in the NBA and finally his team has a winning record.

“I’m excited for this,” Zion said when asked how excited he is to be on a contender with a winning record, per Prince J. Grimes of For The Win. “Because I always tell people, when I’m done playing basketball, I want people to think of me as a winner. Like, ‘that boy was a winner.'”
