The New Orleans Pelicans lost to the Sacramento Kings 105-99 Sunday night despite the best efforts of some late Anthony Davis shot-making and sloppy Kings turnovers.
Davis finished the night with 32 and 10 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals against fellow former Kentucky star DeMarcus Cousins. Cousins himself had 28 points, 14 rebounds and 7 assists and was, as usual, the center of the action at all times, even after whistles or when he wasn’t even on the floor. Darren Collison played nearly even-up with former UCLA teammate Jrue Holiday, notching 20 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists; Jrue had 16, 11 assists, 6 rebounds and 5 steals.
