The New Orleans Pelicans overcame a double-digit deficit to beat the Toronto Raptors 113-99 in their season debut.

Brandon Ingram grazed his first career triple-double, while JJ Redick and Lonzo Ball dazzled with their three-point shooting in the second half to complete a valiant comeback for the New Orleans Pelicans.

It was an up-and-down performance for New Orleans, but I was impressed by newcomers Eric Bledsoe and Steven Adams, who showed why they can be valuable acquisitions for Stan Van Gundy’s squad.
