Pelicans flip script, post impressive 20-point comeback against Clippers in 94-81 win
These are so much more fun to write and read when the Pelicans win, aren’t they?
After days of pessimism, blown leads, and roster insults, the New Orleans Pelicans won a game, beating the Los Angeles Clippers 94-81. But it’s not just the fact that they won that matters, it’s the details behind them.
No Devonte’ Graham, no Zion, of course, against a Clipper squad which has been relatively good, especially over the past couple of weeks. But we’re not done. A terrible first quarter, no 20-point Brandon Ingram performance overall ... and they won?!
Last time the Pels won when they trailed by 20? The Celtics game back on Feb. 21 last season.
