SAN ANTONIO – The final two games of preseason are Alvin Gentry’s opportunity to pare down a rotation that he acknowledged probably can’t include more than 10 players. The way the Pelicans are performing this month, it’s not making those decisions any easier.
Seven different Pelicans reached double digits in scoring Sunday, spearheading New Orleans to a fourth straight exhibition win. Zion Williamson led the group by tallying 22 points, highlighted by 8/11 shooting from the field. The No. 1 overall draft pick actually improved upon his rate through three games, which was already a sky-high 71 percent.
