The New Orleans Pelicans lost a heartbreaking game to the Golden State Warriors, where they looked their best all season.
It all seemed so close for the New Orleans Pelicans.
New Orleans led the Golden State Warriors late in the fourth quarter and came so close to netting a massive win at home.
Unfortunately, the gas fell just a bit short. The Pelicans could not finish in the end and fell short to Golden State 113-109.
At halftime, the Pels were shooting 10-19 from behind the arc and scored 65 points. That highlighted the seven point halftime lead.
Unfortunately, the Warriors found their groove shooting in the second half and outs the Pelicans late in the contest.
The Pels were led by Anthony Davis, who had 28 points and five blocks. The other star of the game was Langston Galloway, who scored 20 points on 5-12 shooting from deep.
Other Observations:
- There’s not much to say other than the obvious, here. This was a big opportunity for the New Orleans Pelicans. It did not pan out the way they hoped. However, they took one of the best teams the league had to offer and nearly outdueled a team with unreal offensive firepower. New Orleans has nothing to feel bad about other than not winning. They gave a fantastic effort tonight.
