Player Grades: New Orleans Pelicans earn balanced win against Pacers

Last night, the New Orleans Pelicans followed up their heartbreaking defeat by the Golden State Warriors with a home game against the Indiana Pacers, a team they have not beaten in quite some time. In fact, the last time the Pelicans beat the Indiana Pacers they weren’t even the Pelicans.

Breaking the losing mindset was not easy though. New Orleans jumped out to a 19-12 lead early with the help of hot shooting and some Jrue Holiday excellence. Holiday finished the quarter with a stat-line of 6 points and 4 assist.

In the second quarter the Pacers bounced back excellently.
