Published on: May 16, 2021 8:04 pm IST|Updated on: May 16, 2021 8:04 pm IST
New Orleans Pelicans will enter the game after losing to the Warriors despite a 30 points outing by Nickeill Alexander-Walker. On the other hand, the Los Angeles Lakers will enter the contest after beating the Pacers behind a 28 points outing by Anthony Davis. More information about NOP vs LAL Dream11 will be given here.
Pelicans’ season: New Orleans has had another tough season but the squad has a lot of promise in Williamson, Ingram, and Ball. The trio has multiple abilities to make the team effective but this off-season will be crucial for the Pelicans team which is seeking some sense of stability. Pelicans have not been horrible this season but it is next to impossible for them to enter the NBA Play-in tournament. Let us see what the Pelicans land in this NBA Draft.
Lakers’ season: Los Angeles has been missing LeBron for some time but has somehow managed to remain in contention for the NBA Play-in tournament. With just one game remaining, it remains highly likely that they will face the Warriors in the first round which will bring into the picture a very interesting Curry vs LeBron matchup, a mouth-watering prospect indeed. The reigning champions can’t be taken lightly especially if Schroeder, Davis, and LeBron return in full swing, accompanied by a deep bench.

NOP vs LAL Dream11 Team| Player Stats
Anthony Davis
PPG: 22.1
RPG: 8.0
APG: 3.1
BPG: 1.7
SPG: 1.3
TPG: 2.1
Projected Fantasy Points: 46
The Forward has missed a lot of games due to injury but has been back in action with full swing. Although his groin is still hurting, he is a nightmare for the short-handed Pelicans to deal with. He is averaging 26 PPG for the last 5 games and can be chosen as the Super-Player in the Dream11 NBA play.
LeBron James
PPG: 25.0
APG: 7.8
RPG: 7.8
SPG: 1.0
TPG: 3.8
PFP: 45
LeBron James needs no introduction even to the most casual NBA fan and after missing a lot of games with injury, the Forward will be needed during the NBA Play-in tournament.
Nickeill Alexander-Walker
PPG: 11.0
RPG: 3.1
SPG: 1.0
TPG: 1.4
PFP: 37
Walker will see the ball a lot in his hands as both the big guns Ingram and Williamson are out. He is more than capable of going for big nights and can help Pelicans on that end. He is averaging 15.8 PPG for the last 5 games.
Eric Bledsoe: PPG: 12.2 APG: 3.8 RPG: 3.4 TPG: 1.6
PFP: 27
The veteran guard is past his prime but can still produce decent scoring nights. In absence of Williamson and Ingram, his contributions will become even more vital. He is averaging 15.8 PPG and 5.6 APG for the last 5 games.
Talen Horton Tucker: PPG: 9.0 SPG: 1.0 TPG: 1.5
PFP: 29
Tucker has become a more than commendable guard off the bench and he has been in superb form recently. He is averaging 13.8 PPG and 5.6 APG for the last 5 games.
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope: PPG: 9.7 PFP: 15
