Coming off of a great collective effort against the Orlando Magic to start their six-game homestand, the New Orleans Pelicans looked to keep rolling against the league’s worst team in the Brooklyn Nets, but were ultimately blown out by an astounding 29 points.
Against Orlando on Wednesday, Davis went for 21 points and 14 rebounds and the Pelicans were able to generate some quality offense with five other players scoring in double-digits. That success made it seem as if the matchup with the laughable Nets would be a breeze, but it simply wasn’t the Pelicans’ night.
Davis continued his incredible play in the first half, going for 22 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists, and 2 blocks, but had to head to the locker room early before halftime.
