The New Orleans Pelicans suffered a crushing setback after an embarrassing capitulation against the Portland Trail Blazers.
The Pels were up 16 points with ten minutes to go in the fourth quarter, but Portland chipped away at that advantage behind Damian Lillard’s heroics until it was no more. It was an awful loss for New Orleans on the road, who have blown ten double-digit leads this season alone.
After sparking out the Cleveland Cavaliers and then the Los Angeles Clippers consecutively, the Pelicans continue to be the frontrunners for the most baffling team in the association.
