The Pelicans remain on track for the playoffs, but it’s anything but certain they can stay on right path. For at least a night though, New Orleans got a much needed 123-95 victory over the Memphis Grizzlies, in a game they had to have following a four-game losing streak at the hands of the Rockets, Trail Blazers, Cavaliers and Thunder.
New Orleans received a nice boost from E’Twaun Moore and his game-high 30 points on a career-high seven three pointers, but he wasn’t alone. Baby-faced Nikola Mirotic poured in 25 on 10/12 to go along with 28 and 12 from the Anthony Davis, and 15 and six from Jrue Holiday.
