The New Orleans Pelicans are likely searching for answers following a 107-101 loss against the Rockets last night. It was a game in which the Rockets came in prepared to defend and keep the ball out of Anthony Davis‘ hands.
It would appear this formula is a recipe to defeat the Pelicans. Davis shot 18 shots against the Rockets for 26 points. Jrue Holiday followed up with a cool 19 points. Although, once again Nikola Mirotic is the odd man out, scoring only seven points on seven shots.
Today, the Pelicans will play the Boston Celtics after playing the Houston Rockets last evening.
