Every win has to feel like a ray of hope for New Orleans Pelicans fans.
If so, tonight’s ray of hope must have been quite a big one.
After trailing by seven at halftime and by 10 early into the third quarter, New Orleans went on a 21-0 run in the third quarter. They would not lose control of the game the rest of the way. The Pelicans took down a tough, physical Grizzlies team 95-82.
Things looked grim for the Pelicans in the first half. New Orleans shot just 28.6 percent from the field and scored just 34 points in the first 24 minutes.
