After such an impressive victory against the surging Denver Nuggets this past Wednesday, the Pelicans looked as though they were a team who finally found their groove. With their succeeding game being against the 7-17 Sacramento Kings, a win streak of two seemed all but imminent. Add in the return of Anthony Davis, and the odds grow even stronger! Unfortunately, tonight, hopes were tempered as New Orleans ended up losing the home matchup against the lowly California franchise in overtime.
Behind Zach Randolph’s season high 35-points, and career high five three-pointers, the Sacramento Kings garnered their eighth win on the season in a 116-109 overtime victory against the New Orleans Pelicans.
