The New Orleans Pelicans had previously gone 0-33 when scoring under 100 points in a game this season.
No time like the present to break a streak like that.
The Pelicans kept grinding throughout a tough contest to secure a close victory against another struggling team in the New York Knicks. After being down five points at halftime, the Pels held the Knicks to just 10 points in the third quarter, helping them secure a lead going into the final frame.
From there, it was up to strong playmaking and a continued focus on strong defense.
