The New Orleans Pelicans needed another monster effort from Zion Williamson to overcome the lowly Cavaliers last night.
The Pels were still shorthanded without Lonzo Ball and Josh Hart, but got big nights from their two stars, as Zion poured in another 38 points and Brandon Ingram added 27 of his own in a night where the Pels got down double digits before roaring back.
This would have been an ugly loss, as the Pels were fresh off a big win over the 76ers and are still clinging to their playoff hopes, now just one game back of the Warriors for the final play-in spot.
