My Player of the Game: Zion Williamson

Takeaways

• The Pelicans played HARD this game, and it just makes such a difference in how the game goes. Zion was jumping higher and I've ever seen to get rebounds he hasn't been getting in the last seven games. He had four blocks too!
• Everyone needs to recognize that Zion Williamson shot a jumper from the elbow and it was nothing but net. If he adds this to his game, he will become unstoppable.
• CJ McCollum -- y'all can say what you want about him but that man keeps us in games with his hot offensive hand.
• Willie Green played small ball again, but this time it finally worked most of the game.
• Jose Alvarado was a thing of beauty to see back on the floor. He is so important to the Pelicans doing well because of the energy and defensive presence he brings.
• Lastly, Devin Booker is a such a baby.
