The Phoenix Suns battled the New Orleans Pelicans for the second time in under a week on Sunday afternoon, but the result was not the same for the Suns as last Monday. Phoenix has their chances, but poor shooting and execution down the stretch equated to a 113-105 loss.
Zion Williamson had 29 points, including 12 in the fourth. CJ McCollum had 31 points as he was hot early, hitting 7 of his 12 three-point attempts. The Suns were led by Bradley Beal and his 33 points, 15 of which came in the fourth. It was an off night for Durant shooting-wise, as he went 8-of-22 from the field.
