The New Orleans Pelicans eeked out a win over the Kings to end their losing streak at five.

The New Orleans Pelicans held on for dear life to get a 128-123 win over the Sacramento Kings.

The game featured some All-Star game level defense, as both teams stood around and watched the other pour in easy buckets for most of the game.

If there is anything that can get a team out of an offensive funk, it’s playing the Kings, who are currently the worst defensive team in the NBA.
