Takeaways
- This was a winnable game, but the Pels three-point defending was bad, BI did not shoot even ONE three pointer, and Pels missed seven free throws.
- N.O. struggled to guard Coby White, who could not miss tonight.
- The Pelicans only had 12 turnovers, which is an improvement since the beginning of the season.
- The Pels will play on Monday at Sacramento and will have CJ McCollum and Trey Murphy back.
