Zion is looking pretty good his last few games and helped the Pelicans beat the Clippers tonight. This is his second 30+ point outing in a row and his stats have been improving a lot lately each game. I’m half expecting him to go for 40 in his next game. I love to see him leading the team in minutes. He seems to finally be getting it together.
It was still a close game though, Clippers was able to hang in until in the last 2 minutes of the game. But that steal was very crucial in the last minute and I think that put dampen the spirit of the Clippers to make a comeback or even force the game into OT. Paul George is cooking in this game after he was in the receiving on in their last games against the defense that ANT put on him.
And whenever Zion gets the ball, it's usually high percentage as most of his point are in the paint and Zubac was kindly slow guarding him and they are giving him his strong side which is the left side. Needed win by the Pels to keep their 5th position in the West.
