The Cavaliers’ team effort was on full display, with multiple players contributing significantly from long range, setting a pace that the Pelicans struggled to match. Despite New Orleans’ efforts in scoring from the paint and the foul line, they could not overcome Cleveland’s 3-point barrage.
Zion Williamson‘s 33 points and nine rebounds highlighted the Pelicans’ individual performances, yet the team fell short in matching the Cavaliers’ urgency and execution.
“We just weren’t on from the 3-point line tonight,” Williamson said. “But when nights like that happen, we have to find other ways to be effective.”
