Pelicans (4-0), Nets (2-3)
Despite trailing by five points in the final minute, despite watching Brooklyn nearly run out the waning seconds of regulation – prior to a disastrous Nets turnover – New Orleans remained undefeated. Jrue Holiday sank the go-ahead jumper to give the Pelicans a one-point lead and punctuate an improbable late comeback, after the hosts had trailed for the vast majority of Friday’s interconference matchup.
IT WAS OVER WHEN…
Up 117-115, Anthony Davis deflected away a Brooklyn inbound pass with 2 seconds remaining, allowing New Orleans to grab the ball and run out the time.
