Pelicans (21-33), 76ers (8-46)
New Orleans posted its third wire-to-wire victory of the regular season, building a 22-point lead in the first half, then keeping Philadelphia at arm’s length for most of the second. The Pelicans opened the post-All-Star break portion of the schedule in winning fashion, their third triumph in the last four games, with the only defeat coming in Oklahoma City. New Orleans at least momentarily moved within 5.5 games of eighth place in the Western Conference, powered by a stellar performance from the trio of Anthony Davis, Ryan Anderson and Jrue Holiday. They combined to score 84 points.
