Takeaways
- If you thought Trey Murphy wasn't back to his old self, then you should have no doubts after this game.
- Zion Williamson is also back. Like he's BACK BACK.
- Pels went 3-0 on this road trip and have won four in a row.
- The Pelicans had too many offensive weapons against the Hawks and did not have the size to matchup with BI or Jonas.
- Herb Jones will be first-team all-defense.
- There are 18 regular season games left, and the Pels need 11 wins to end the season with 50 victories.
