Pelicans travel to Orlando

The New Orleans Pelicans are off to a quick 2-0 start in the preseason as the new members of the
roster work together to become a fluid squad. Coach Monty Williams said recently his team has
to focus on playing better defense and keeping opponents out of the lane.
The Pelicans return to action tonight for their third consecutive road contest, facing off with
the Orlando Magic. The Pelicans opened the preseason Saturday night in Houston, earning a
116-114 victory over center Dwight Howard and the Rockets, following up with a 94-92 squeaker
over Dirk Nowitzki and the Mavericks on Monday.
