Pelicans Beat Nets 105-103 On Holiday’s Winning Jumper

NEW ORLEANS -- Guard Jrue Holiday made a 3-pointer from the left wing with 9.3 seconds left and then drained a game-winning, fallaway 15-foot jumper with 1.3 seconds remaining to lift the New Orleans Pelicans to a 105-103 victory over the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday night at the Smoothie King Center.

The score was tied at 100 when Holiday made his 3-pointer over the outstretched arms of forward Thomas Robinson, but the Nets responded with a great inbounds feed from Donald Sloan to forward Joe Johnson, who nailed a 3-pointer from two step behind the key to tie the score at 103 with 6.
