The New Orleans Pelicans lost to the Cleveland Cavaliers 90-82, failing to score in the final 2:56 of action as LeBron James (26 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists) pounded his way to the bucket and free throw line to ice it late in Quicken Loans Arena. The loss ended the Pels’ 4-game winning streak.
Anthony Davis had 20 points and 17 rebounds, but struggled immensely as evidenced by 27 shot attempts and commented about it in post-game. However, he was not alone in getting the ball through the hoop. The Pelicans shot just 36.
