- The Pels bench scored 22 points in the first half, which made a big difference.
- Pelicans need CJ back to run the offense.
- Zion played a great game considering how few fouls were called for him.
- Three-point shooting defense was, once again, a problem for the Pels.
- Brandon Ingram's 11 points in the third quarter kept the Pelicans in the game.
- The Jazz had 51 points from three's.
- Pels played hard and solid but needed to stop the three-point ball from the Jazz.
