PPR: Pelicans make the Washington Wizards Disappear 142-122 (Full Recap)
by Rell Wright/Pelican Contributor
The New Orleans Pelicans soared past the Washington Wizards with a commanding 144-122 victory on Wednesday night. The spotlight shone brightly on Brandon Ingram, who delivered a season-high 40 points, orchestrating the Pelicans’ attack with precision and flair. This remarkable performance was further bolstered by the sharpshooting of Trey Murphy III, who sank six 3-pointers on his way to a notable 27 points. This game marked the Pelicans’ most impressive offensive performance of the season, a feat achieved even in the absence of their two-time All-Star Zion Williamson, sidelined due to a sprained ankle.
The Pelicans’ triumph was a collective effort, with significant contributions from several players. Jonas Valanciunas was a force to reckon with in the paint, securing 16 points and a dominant 18 rebounds, while CJ McCollum added 22 points to the tally, showcasing his scoring versatility. The team’s resilience and depth were on full display as they embarked on a challenging three-game road trip. The absence of Williamson was hardly felt as the team synergized to dismantle the Wizards’ defense, setting a high bar for the rest of their road games. This victory not only demonstrates the Pelicans’ offensive firepower but also sends a strong message to their competitors about their ability to win big games, even when short-handed.
