The Pelicans went streaking Thursday night in Phoenix, Arizona. New Orleans won their third game in a row after managing to hang on in the final seconds for a 124-121 road victory against Devin Booker and the Suns.
This was a flat out fun game to watch. Both franchises sport rosters full of youngsters with something to prove. One of those players is point guard Lonzo Ball. Ball returned to the lineup after missing several games with a hip injury. Despite his availability though, head coach Alvin Gentry elected to again start Jrue Holiday and JJ Redick in the backcourt.
