The New Orleans Pelicans play the Sacramento Kings on Friday in the play-in tournament for the eighth seed, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

The winner will face the Oklahoma City Thunder in the first round of the 2024 NBA playoffs. It’ll be a quick turnaround as Game 1 in OKC will take place on Sunday, April 21. The full series schedule can be read here.

The Pelicans will have another chance to qualify for the playoffs after they lost their chance to gain the seventh seed in their play-in tournament loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. They will be without Zion Williamson, who suffered a hamstring strain and will be out for multiple weeks.

Meanwhile, the Kings advanced in the play-in tournament with a blowout win over the Golden State Warriors that ended the latter’s season. Sacramento is without Malik Monk and Kevin Huerter.
