New Orleans Pelicans po bardzo zaciętym spotkaniu bez istniejącej obrony pokonali na własnym terenie w Staples Center, Los Angeles Lakers. Jeziorowcy odgrywają jeden z najgorszych sezonów w swojej historii i dzięki porażce z Pelikanami przybliżyli się znacznie bliżej wymarzonego wysokiego picku w drafcie, niż między innymi ekipa z Luizjany.
Po kilku ciężkich spotkaniach z rzędu wreszcie uwolnił się nieco Anthony Davis (28 & 15) oraz Eric Gordon (28). Kapitalnie od czasu wejścia do pierwszej piątki – mecz z Phoenix – spisuje się Tyreke Evans. Reke kolejny raz był jednym z najjaśniejszych punktów drużyny Williamsa zdobywając 24 punkty, 11 asyst i 7 zbiórek.
