The New Orleans Pelicans came into tonight facing a must-win game in Denver.
It would end in a convincing 25-point victory for the Pels.
One of the issues coming into tonight was the Denver Nuggets’ lethal scoring and offensive rebounding. However, the Nuggets shot just 37.9 percent from the field. They also only grabbed eight offensive boards, while New Orleans finished with 10. While Denver’s offense crumbled, the Pelicans balanced scoring shined bright.
All 11 Pelicans who saw the floor tonight made at least one basket from the floor. That includes six Pels, three off the bench, who would finish with at least 10 points in the game.
