Pelicans’ coaches commit crucial blunder in OT loss to Suns

Pelicans’ coaches commit crucial blunder in OT loss to Suns

Clutch Sports

What a perfect way to sum up the 2018-19 NBA season for the New Orleans Pelicans. The Pelicans were on their way to an overtime win against the lowly Phoenix Suns. They were up three with 6.5 seconds to play. Then this happened.
