Believe it or not, the NBA regular season is almost over. In fact, there are only two more full weeks of action remaining before the NBA Play-In Tournament gets underway (to learn more about that, be sure to visit this post here).

To their credit, if the play-in tournament started right now, the New Orleans Pelicans would be involved in the festivities, as they currently own the ninth seed in the conference.

However, their place in the standings is far from solidified, as they are both two games away from the fourth seed and two games away from the twelfth seed. With so much opportunity for upward/downward movement in the standings, each game will hold a certain level of weight.

But how much weight will each game hold? To find out, we ranked Week 24’s Pelicans games from least important to most. Here is what we got.
